The Alimbic Cluster is a region of space inside the Tetra Galaxy, largely uncharted and outside of federation control.[1][2] This star cluster drew Galactic Federation interest when they intercepted a telepathic message, which said only, "The secret to Ultimate Power lies in the Alembic Cluster." Samus Aran was hired to investigate the meaning of the message, and either secure the Ultimate Power for federation control or destroy it.[3]

Eons earlier, a race known as the Alimbics had colonized planets and built a number of space stations within the Alimbic Cluster. Their civilization has since disappeared, except for remaining ruins.[4] Sites they constructed that Samus visits include the Celestial Archives, the Vesper Defense Outpost, the planets Alinos and Arcterra, and the Infinity Void and Oubliette.
