The '''North Atrium''' is a room in the [[Chozo Ruins]]. It is accessed from the [[Ruined Nursery]] and leads to the [[Ruined Gallery]]. There are two small hallways that branch of the main room that lead to the two connecting rooms. There is a swarm of [[Scarab]]s in the room.


The '''North Atrium''' is a room in the [[Chozo Ruins]]. It is accessed from the [[Ruined Nursery]] and leads to the [[Ruined Gallery]].
There are two small hallways that branch of the main room that lead to the two connecting rooms. There is a swarm of [[Scarab]]s and many small, green insects in the room. The room was once filled with water, however it seems to have been evaporated away.<ref name="Water" /><ref name="Evaporated" /> It may have evaporated due to the lack of an irrigation system in the room paired with an open roof. Meaning sunlight can enter the room to boil the water, but the water won't be replaced unless it happens to rain above the room.
The room contains two [[Chozo]] sculptures honoring [[Tallon IV|Tallon IV's]] star, [[FS-176]].<ref name="Star" /> It also contains two panels of data which cannot be read by [[Samus|Samus's]] [[Scan Visor]], though the symbol for "Chozo" is clear.<ref name="Chozo" /> Interestingly, the room also contains three eye-shaped rocks assumed to be petrified [[Eyon]]s.<ref name="Eyon" /> The Eyons may have dried up along with the water once present in the room.

==Trivia==
*An {{wp|Atrium (architecture)|atrium}} is a large open architectural space usually containing a glass panel as a ceiling. While North Atrium is a relatively small room, it does have an open ceiling design where a glass of some sort may once have been placed.
*Unlike most multiple scans, the scan with illegible symbols (of which only the word "Chozo" is recognized) can be scanned twice in the room and is treated as a new scan the second time. Both structures seem to be identical.
**Ironically, in the same room, the sculptures of [[FS-176]] are different, yet contain the same scan. When one is scanned, the other will not be treated as a new scan.
