Appearance and Navigation[edit | edit source]

The room consists of a large Half Pipe that is partially filled with sand and two "Humility" Class Turrets suspended on the ceiling. This sand can be used as a ramp to reach the high door to the Save Station. There is a section of the half pipe on the east end that is weaken with Brinstone, and can be destroyed with a Missile to reveal a hallway to the Reactor. In addition, there is a small control room that can be accessed by using the Boost Ball to reach a small tunnel. This room has a terminal that can be scanned to remove the sand from the main room to reveal a Missile Expansion.

Upgrades[edit | edit source]

Missile Expansion[edit | edit source]

Requires: Boost Ball

  • The expansion is buried under the sand, which can be cleared by scanning a control panel in a room that initially can't be reached. Once Samus regains her Boost Ball, she can use the Half Pipe to reach a Morph Ball tunnel into the room, giving her the ability to scan the panel and access to the expansion.
