The space colony that houses the Galactic Research Station

Ceres Space Colony houses the Galactic Research Station. The station is a highly sophisticated Federation science facility. When Samus retrieves the last surviving Metroid Hatchling from SR388, she takes it to Ceres Station, so that the scientists of the Space Science Academy[1] can study its energy producing qualities. The scientists conclude that the energy producing capabilities of the Metroids can be harnessed for the good of galactic civilization. Before they can study the Metroid further, the station is attacked by Ridley. A distress call is sent, but Samus arrives too late.[2] Upon arrival at the station, she finds everyone dead and the Metroid, still in its protective casing, in Ridley's possession. After fighting Samus for a brief time, Ridley triggers the station's self destruct sequence and flees, leaving Samus no choice but to retreat. The station self-destructs shortly after departure and is effectively blown out of existence.
