  • Research Entrance is, as its name suggests, the entrance to Glacier One. It is located in the Phendrana Drifts in Metroid Prime. It is a large room containing many pillars, wires and metal walkways and a few crates, with an upper metal-floored level. When Samus enters this room, a Sentry Drone appears and sounds an alarm. Blast shields rise, the doors lock and Space Pirates attack; these must be defeated to unlock the doors again. On later trips, the Space Pirates are replaced by Shadow Pirates, and the doors do not lock.

  • Research Entrance is, as its name suggests, the entrance to Glacier One. It is located in the Phendrana Drifts in Metroid Prime. It is a large room containing many pillars, wires and metal walkways and a few crates, with an upper metal-floored level. When Samus enters this room, a Sentry Drone appears and sounds an alarm. Blast shields rise, the doors lock and Space Pirates attack; these must be defeated to unlock the doors again. On later trips, the Space Pirates are replaced by Shadow Pirates, and the doors do not lock. After Samus acquires the Thermal Visor, the room becomes very foggy, likely a tactic the Pirates employ once they know Samus has breached their compound to stop Samus from seeing the Shadow Pirates.
