SPACE PIRATES (A race that steals things and are sworn enemies of SAMUS ARAN but they don’t like things being nicked from them) own the space frigate. Scan the near door switch one through the first door then you should open the door and walk through it. If I remember correctly there should be a hole. Press the X button (yes this if for gamecube) and turn into morph ball (A ball technology designed for SAMUS ARAN (A hunter from earth whose parents were killed by space pirates and the chozo found her so they trained her with there techniques and gave her part of there races blood) that can have many upgrades) roll through the hole and get the map upgrade.
Air Lock: Scan the console to repressurize the air lock. Head through the far door.
Deck Alpha Access Hall: Shoot far door to continue.
Emergency Evacuation Area: In this room are a couple of parasites that won't really bother you, but you can practice shooting them. Note all the dead things in the area. Freaky, eh? Watch out, the last Space Pirate in this room is only mostly dead. Finish him off and move on.
Deck Alpha Umbilical Hall: Charge up your beam by holding A and bust down the rubble. Continue on.
Map Facility: Watch the nearby Parasites run through a little tunnel. Press X to drop into your Morph Ball and follow them in the little pathway. Hop on the map pedestal to download the map of this place. Roll back out and take the other door to the next room.
Connection Elevator to Deck Beta: Scan the console to activate the elevator. Step in the hologram and ride down. Leave by the other door.
Deck Beta Conduit Hall: Hop into your Morph Ball. Watch out for the fire and electricity and roll through the small path and head to the next room.
Biotech Research Area 1: There must have been some kegger last night, because the two Space Pirates in this area are not looking too well. Blast them and Head through the next door.
Deck Beta Security Hall: Around the left turn is an Auto Turret. Lock on and quickly fire a Missile using Y to blow it to eces. Head to the next room.
Biohazard Containment: mind the auto turret see what you can scan in this area. Of particular note is one of the consoles that has a red square, which upload a Pirate Data in your Log. Activate the elevator at the other end of the room and ride up. Take out the Space Pirates up here.
Use Missiles or Charge Beams on the standing ones, as they're not as bad off. Take the other door out of here.
Cargo Freight Lift to Deck Gamma: Blast the Auto Turret, scan the console and ride the elevator down to the next deck. Take out the Pirate at the bottom,
scan the console, roll up into the Morph Ball, and drop into the hologram to open the door.
Reactor Core Entrance: Once inside, quickly shoot the Auto Turrets. Head through the door on your left and use the Save
Station. Head back out, scan the console, and roll into the switch to open the door to the Reactor Core.
Reactor Core: Walk in and you meet the annoying pest Parasite Queen! Check the Bosses section to find out how to defeat her. Once she’s down; she'll fall into the core, making it very unstable. Bad. You have seven minutes to evacuate, so get moving. Head to the door you’re now facing.
Deck Gamma Monitor Hall: Don't mind the monitors flashing near you. Just hop up the ledges and head to the opposite door.
Connection Elevator to Deck Beta: Scan the console and quick hop into the Hologram to ride up. Scan the next console you see to shut down the Auto Turret in the hallway. Head through the door. Biotech Research Area 1: Back here now. You can't leave by any of the ways that were open before. You'll see some Pirates fighting another huge parasite, then an explosion will kill them all. Hop up the broken platforms at the far end of the room, then kill the two Pirates up here.
A hatch will bust open. Head into it.
Sub ventilation Shaft Section A: Head down the pipes. You may find it quicker if you hop into your ball form and roll the whole way. The path is rather obvious. Watch out for the clusters of Parasites that pop out, but don't fret too much if you get gooped. Head through the door at the end of this shaft.
Sub ventilation Shaft Section B: Roll down more pipes. Eventually, you'll reach the Cargo Freight Lift, but you won't be able to go down Anywhere. Just cross into the next room.
Main Ventilation Shaft Section A: Run (or roll) up the pipes.
Main Ventilation Shaft Section B: Blast the two Auto Turrets here and move on.
Main Ventilation Shaft Section C: Move on through the pipes, Watching out for parasites.
Main Ventilation Shaft Section D: Keep moving. You're getting close.
Main Ventilation Shaft Section E: There's a big piston here. Follow it as it retracts and slip into the exit on the right.
Main Ventilation Shaft Section F: Nothing special here. Just move.
Biotech Research Area 2: Hey, do we know that guy? After he leaves, face the icons hanging out across from you and hold L to start grappling. Let go and press again to latch onto the next one, then let go and exit the other side.
Connection Elevator to Deck Alpha: Scan the console to shut off the Auto Turret, then head through the tunnel. Watch the electricity, then scan the console to activate the elevator. Oh, crap. That hit you took wasn’t too good. In fact, it was so bad that you lost all your cool stuff (besides Power Suit, Power Beam, Combat Visor, and Scan Visor). Ride up the elevator.
Deck Alpha Mech Shaft: Run through these little tunnels to get back to...
Air Lock: Depressurisation will happen automatically. Open the door and head out.

--------------
At the start you will be at a space centre. NO enemies till you go through the first door. You will do the tutorials. SPACE PIRATES (A race that steals things and are sworn enemies of SAMUS ARAN but they don’t like things being nicked from them) own the space frigate. Scan the near door switch one through the first door then you should open the door and walk through it. If I remember correctly there should be a hole. Press the X button (yes this if for gamecube) and turn into morph ball (A ball technology designed for SAMUS ARAN (A hunter from earth whose parents were killed by space pirates and the chozo found her so they trained her with there techniques and gave her part of there races blood) that can have many upgrades) roll through the hole and get the map upgrade.

Emergency Evacuation Area: In this room are a couple of parasites that won't really bother you, but you can practice shooting them. Note all the dead things in the area. Freaky, eh? Watch out, the last Space Pirate in this room is only mostly dead. Finish him off and move on.
Deck Alpha Umbilical Hall: Charge up your beam by holding A and bust down the rubble. Continue on.
