Wrecked Ship

The Wrecked Ship was an area in Super Metroid in which one of the bosses, Phantoon, resided. The Super Metroid manual claims the ship had been in possession of ancient astronauts but crashed into Zebes. The astronauts may have crashed before or during the time when the Chozo were inhabiting the planet, as evident by the Chozo Statues inside the ship. In Metroid Zero Mission, it makes it clear that the Space Pirate's mothership was destroyed on Zebes after Samus defeated Mecha Ridley in it. However, Zero Mission director Yoshio Sakamoto has dismissed this possibility, saying that the two ships are separate - during Zero Mission the player passes through an area that appears to be outside the Super Metroid wrecked ship in Crateria, whilst the Mother Ship has not yet landed.

The Wrecked Ship may have survived the destruction of Zebes, because it was the only known spaceship that the Etecoons and Dachoras could have used to escape the exploding planet. This theory is supported by the fact that in Metroid Fusion it is shown that the creatures have the ability to opperate a ship.
