Pirate Data

:Not to be confused with Space Pirate Data written by the Pirates on Urtraghus.
The following is a list of Space Pirate data in Metroid Prime. Most of these entries are located on computer screens which Samus Aran can scan to download the text to her Logbook; the lone exception is "Artifact Site", which is accessible through a hologram.
Please note that the North American and international versions of Metroid Prime contain a number of version differences.

:"The Space Pirates have documented their research on Tallon IV, and Samus will frequently find entire log entries that offer glimpses into the insidious operation."
===Metroid Prime: The Official Nintendo Player's Guide===
;PIRATE LOG
:"The Chozo aren't the only ones who keep detailed records. You, too, can learn about evil goings-on by downloading Pirate Logs. You'll find most of the logs in Phendrana Drifts and the Phazon Mines, but a couple lurk in other places. Pirate Logs appear as red Scan Points."
