The Main Sector is the largest sector in the facility and is the only sector not to have a simulated environment; it is entirely mechanized. A portion of it includes the [[Landing Site]] for [[Samus Aran's Gunship|Samus's Gunship]] and the platoon's transport ship, which is located slightly in front of Samus's ship. Other notable rooms include the Control Room, where the Bottle Ship's operational equipment is housed and from whence the platoon receives its orders (and from whence Samus receives hers), the System Management Room, which includes a terminal that provides power to the sector (initially off-line), the Control Bridge, which houses the facility's navigational equipment, and the Residential Quarters, which is empty when explored but presumably housed Bergman and her staff. It also includes a large elevator known as the Main Elevator, which provides access to all sectors except for Sector Zero.

The Biosphere is the first simulated-environment sector encountered on the Bottle Ship. It is a jungle environment, featuring a wide variety of flora and fauna that have adapted to its warm and humid climate.<ref>{{cite|Sector 1 Biosphere<br>This section has been reserved for the care and feeding of animals that can survive in an artificial atmosphere of warmth and humidity.|Exam Center computer|Metroid: Other M}}</ref> Vines pervade its many corridors, and it is subject to incessant but pleasant bouts of rainfall. It also sports a small river, a lake, and a waterfall. Scattered throughout the sector are terminals that can toggle its environment on and off. Its most notable location is the Exam Center, housed in the Biosphere's test area, where Samus Aran, the platoon, and Adam first become aware of the plot to create bioweapons. The body of [[Lyle Smithsonian]] is found a few feet from it.

Despite its number, the Cryosphere is the last simulated-environment sector encountered. It is designed to house creatures adapted to frigid temperatures.<ref>{{cite|Sector 2 Cryosphere<br>This section has been reserved for the care and feeding of animals that can survive in an artificial atmosphere of extreme cold.|Exam Center computer|Metroid: Other M}}</ref> The sector features a continuous snowfall, and its terrain consists of large stalactites and other ice structures as well as icy platforms. The latter are often found floating in one of the sector's many lakes, a few of which are frozen solid. It also contains the only known entrance to Sector Zero, and the rooms leading to it feature bizarre gravity fields. The sector even contains a victim of Metroid predation, a Gigafraug, seemingly impossible considering that Metroids cannot survive cold temperatures and were completely annihilated after Samus's [[Super Metroid|last mission]]. [[MB]] is first sighted here, and Samus becomes aware of the presence of [[The Deleter|an assassin within the platoon]].

The Pyrosphere is the second simulated-environment sector encountered and houses creatures adapted to extremely high temperatures.<ref> {{cite|Sector 3 Pyrosphere<br>This section has been reserved for the care and feeding of animals that can survive in an artificial atmosphere of extreme heat.|Exam Center computer|Metroid: Other M}}</ref> It features an active volcano and mainly consists of a sea of lava with rock platforms scattered throughout, rendering it deadly without [[Varia Suit|proper protection]].

Misawa]]'s frozen corpse is also incinerated in this sector by the assassin within the platoon, and Samus's contact with Adam is severed.<ref>{{cite| Something was gnawing at me.
