A '''Landing Site''' is an area where a ship can be landed. The location of Landing Sites vary between games. While they may be improvised, such as ''[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes|Echoes']]'' [[Landing Site (Aether)|Landing Site]], there are designated Landing Sites in certain areas, particularly ''[[Metroid Prime 3: Corruption|Corruption's]]'' various Landing Sites.

''[[Metroid: Zero Mission]]'' sports [[Samus Aran|Samus's]] first ship landing for a mission. The does not appear to be a designated landing area. In fact, it doesn't seem to be anything beyond a large open space; this, however, makes it suitable for a landing area. Samus lands on this area when she arrives on [[Zebes]]. She returns to it and escapes in her ship as the planet begins to explode.

Samus later makes a crash landing again on Zebes's surface after her gunship is severely damaged by [[Zebesian]]s.

Samus later encounters a Space Pirate Landing Site while attempting to take down the [[Space Pirate Mother Ship]] based on Zebes. After defeating [[Mecha Ridley]], she escapes on a Space Pirate ship landed in a Landing Site.

Samus first lands her ship on [[Frigate Orpheon|''Frigate Orpheon's'']] [[Exterior Docking Hangar]]. The Hangar may have been used by Space Pirates to land their ships, however as Samus lands there are no other ships present. This may have been due to the Pirates' evacuation of ''Orpheon''. When Samus lands her ship, it is not accessible to her until she is escaping ''Orpheon''.

{{main|Landing Site (Tallon Overworld)}}
After chasing [[Meta Ridley]] down into [[Tallon IV]], Samus manages to land her ship in the grassy Tallon Overworld. The room where she lands her room, like most other landing sites in the ''[[Metroid Prime (series)|Prime]]'' series, is known simply as [[Landing Site (Tallon Overworld)|Landing Site]]. Samus seems to have picked a large open space for easy landing and taking off maneuvers. No other vehicles are known to have landed here.

Samus's ship lands nowhere else in the events during ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]'', but it does help her escape the [[Impact Crater]] through the [[Artifact Temple]].
