Observatory

The Observatory is a room in Metroid Prime in the Phendrana Drifts.

It is a tall, cylindrical room of Space Pirate construction, being a holographic planisphere representing the FS-176 System.

Enemies
There are a few Space Pirates in this room.

Research
Once the holographic display is activated (by using the Spinners and Bomb Slot in the room), Samus may scan the holographic representations of the planets Zebes and Tallon IV.

The Super Missile
This room contains the Super Missile, a mandatory item. To reach it, Samus must simply climb a simple ladder of platforms around the edge of the room. The Super Missile is located at the very top, in plain sight.
