Omega Research is a room in the Phazon Mines. It appears in Metroid Prime.
Description[]
This room has two levels. Samus enters from the higher level and can jump down to the lower one, but must deactivate a barrier using the Scan Visor to return the higher one. On the lower floor is a Pirate Data entry. The second time Samus goes through here, she fights an Elite Pirate. There is a Bendezium structure on the higher level that gives access to a Map Station.
A Hidden World can be found in this room: [1]

Unauthorized usage of resources continues. Patterns suggest these resources are being stolen by the Hunter. Increase monitoring of all resource facilities immediately."
- Wall terminal
- "Recon Teams are searching for the Hunter's gunship.
Science Team believes it employs a sophisticated cloaking device beyond our capabilities. Aside from dumb luck, we may never discover its location. We must contain or eliminate Aran. Failure to comply with Command decree is not an option."

- Omega Pirate
- "Log 11.232.8
Elite Pirate Upsilon's propensity for Phazon has enabled our research team to infuse it far beyond our safety restrictions, and the results have been extremely encouraging. Its constant Phazon diet has increased its mass exponentially, but it has retained all mental faculties and shows dexterity with all Elite weaponry, including Plasma Incendiary Launchers and the Chameleon Manta issued for cloaking purposes. Elite Pirate Upsilon exhibits miraculous healing abilities; when injured, it seeks out Phazon deposits and coats itself in the substance, which instantly mends the creature's wounds. The subject, which we are code-naming Omega Pirate based on these developments, shows potential to be a new standard for our armies. Our only concern at this point is its potential overdependence on Phazon."
Trivia[]
- If the Force Field was disabled, it will still appear reactivated immediately before the Elite Pirate battle. Scanning the terminal (again) will not disable it.
- The White Door leading to Map Station Mines can be opened with the Phazon Beam (via hacking) and only on this side.
