Transport to Agon Wastes, also known as Sand Elevator[1], is a room in the Temple Grounds. It appears in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.
Description[]
There is an elevator near the edge of a cliff with some webbing to the left side, which hides a Missile Expansion. Using the Scan Visor on an Interface Module close to the elevator will activate it.
In the Metroid Prime 2: Echoes Bonus Disc, the Luminoth Webbing blocking the Missile Expansion is missing, as is the expansion itself. When approaching the ledge, a message, "Warning: Terminal Fall Ahead!" appears. Additionally, the Moth Temple Landing Site theme continues to play here, which it does not in the final game.

We considered remaining among the stars until a scout returned with news of a world unlike any other. When we beheld Aether for the first time, so great was her beauty that we forsook the stars forever to live upon her surface. From that day forth, the Luminoth were of Aether, our blessed paradise."

Trivia[]
- This is the only room in the Metroid series with both an Elevator and a powerup together.
- Very curiously, if Sequence Breaking is used to reach this room without triggering the Temple Grounds introduction cutscene, this room will play the Moth Temple Intro theme.
