'''Nova''' are creatures who first appear in ''[[Metroid]]''. They also appear in ''[[Metroid Fusion]]'' and ''[[Metroid: Other M]]''.
'''Nova''' are small insectoid creatures that seem to have flames on their backs. They mainly live in volcanic areas. In all games but ''Metroid'', they are capable of dripping some sort of flammable fluid on unsuspecting intruders from above. In ''Other M'', they are capable of causing minor explosions to damage [[Samus Aran|Samus]] and are particularly vulnerable to the [[Ice Beam]]. In two-dimensional games, they seem to be volcanic equivalents of [[Zoomer]]s.
 
==Info==
The Nova are small, insect-like creatures with flames on their backs. Native to the planet [[Zebes]], these creatures mainly live in volcanic areas. A number of Nova were taken to the [[Biologic Space Labs Research Station|B.S.L research station]] and the [[Bottle Ship]] for research.
