File:Aurora Exploding (Subnautica Update 15935)

The Aurora is a space craft sent to the Ariadne Arm by Alterra Corporation in order to a build a phasegate.

During its descent on Planet 4546B, it was struck by a mysterious energy pulse resulting in catastrophic hull failure, leading to its crash landing on the surface of the planet. Lifepods were launched before impact and several survived. One of them, Lifepod 5, contained the player.

By the time the player awakens and begins exploration of the area, all of the other Lifepods have been destroyed. As the containment field has failed, the ship's wreckage is surrounded by Radiation.

The crash resulted in large quantities of Metal Salvage and Supply Crates being dispersed within the vicinity of the ship. It can be very useful for users needing materials for food or Titanium.

Exploring the Aurora

Over the course of several in-game days, the ship's computer announces imminent containment failure, eventually leading to a ten second countdown and a gigantic explosion. The in-game timer will begin either when the user starts a new game, or updates and reloads an old save.

The explosion is focused towards the forward section of the ship.

Only after the explosion is the player able to explore inside the Aurora, and only if equipped with a Radiation Suit. Fire and dripping molten steel can injure the player, and periodic shaking of the hull occurs. Further dangers are posed by the Reaper Leviathans that spawn around the ship, and the Cave Crawlers that litter the entrance area of the ship.

By going up a ramp in the torn up front section of the Aurora, the player can enter a corridor that leads inside the ship. On the way up, the user can find several supply crates with crafted items inside of them. To the right of the T-section, there is a door which is blocked off by rubble. The left corridor leads to the generator room. In the middle there is a console containing a Seamoth Pressure Compensator.

Alternatively, there is a small hole torn in the side of the ship, partially hidden in a narrow crevasse. Inside is a twisting vertical shaft to the generator room.

Generator Room

Inside the generator room are four large generators. They are connected by catwalks, though some are underwater and heavily damaged. The generators are covered in breaches and the player's objective is to repair them using the Welder. Repairing the breaches removes the radiation entirely after three in-game days.

The Power Upgrade Module for the Cyclops can also be found in the generator room. It sticks out from the upgrade console at the center of the room. The Developers plan on adding an Exosuit Fragment to the generator room once the Exosuit has been implemented [1]. It is possible that this will be the only fragment of this type available to players. Bleeders can also be found in the water around the generators. There is a tunnel through the ship's hull that starts inside the generator room and leads outside the Aurora.

Trivia

  • The riddle was solved, on the same day of the Habitat update's release, by /u/Zarickan on Reddit.
  • Cory Strader has said that Baat Torgal shot the Aurora down with a gun, albeit indirectly. However, it is unknown whethere he is telling the truth.[1]
