| abstract | - Some of these generated require puzzles to be solved before they can be used. The Portal Terminal generation system relies on solar power, which Samus must provide by moving solar lenses into place with a conveyor system in the room. A functioning generated Portal appears in the Hall of Honored Dead, but it is unreachable and unusable due to "safety measures". This is later revealed to be because a wall of Phazon is blocking the portal on the other side, in the Sky Temple Gateway. It is only used during the climax of the game, where the wall explodes after Samus defeats Dark Samus. She then runs through the Portal and emerges from the other side before Dark Aether collapses. The Portal can be reached through a complicated series of jumps, but is non-functional.
