'''Alien Research Site Zero''' is an [[Alien Bases|Alien Base]] near [[Research Base Zero]]. The top half of the base was a failed quarantine option for [[The Architects]].


Depending on whether the player has already acquired [[Al-An]] or not, a forcefield will prevent entry. Should Al-An be in [[Robin Ayou|Robin]]'s head, it will shut down upon approach.
The exterior is built similarly to that of the [[w:c:Subnautica: Primary Containment Facility|Primary Containment Facility]] in [[the Crater]], as seen in the concept art.

Beyond the entryway is the Power Room, which contains a massive machine that appears to be a power source, presumably for a warp gate. It is believed that once Al-An acquires his body, he will be able to activate the machine.
During her search for [[Serik Jevov]], Robin Goodall stops by Alien Research Site Zero, only to be denied access by an unknown voice, who threatens her. Taken aback by the facility knowing her name, Robin reports to her sister, [[Sam Goodall]], who warns her that an meteor storm is coming, but lightning confirms that it's already arrived. On her way out of the cave, the meteor storm renders the cave unstable, and an avalanche blocks the cave entrance and destroys the [[Research Base Zero]].


In the back of the Power Room is a doorway to another large room that is currently empty. It is unknown what may be here in the future.
== Lower Section - Alien Research Site Zero ==
The lower section of Alien Research Site Zero is accessed via an ice cave tunnel. At the beginning of the story, the interior is inaccessible as Al-An restricts access to the inside. At a later point in the story, presumably after Al-An has been given a physical form, the force field will be shut off with the assistance of a [[White Tablet]], granting access. Not much is known about the contents of the base, except for a single elevator leading to the upper section of the base.

== Upper Section - Shield Base ==
While the player can find Alien Research Site Zero at any point in the story, it can only be accessed once Al-An has taken residence in Robin's mind.
The upper section of Alien Research Site Zero is accessible only by the lower level's elevator. This section is known as the Shield Base, and is the endgame location of ''Subnautica: Below Zero''. The Shield Base appears capable of generating a shield, but for what purpose is still unknown. It can be assumed that the shield will be activated in the later parts of the game. Al-An will be found here after the construction of his body.


Once Al-An has acquired a new vessel, he suggests that Robin meet with him at the site. It is assumed that from here, Al-An will be able to return to the Architect homeworld via warp gate.
In-development footage shows that a large amount of the base is jutting out of the mountain, forming what appears to be a balcony. The exterior of the upper section is far larger than that of the lower section, and it is possible that it may be visible from the surface. According to developer notes, the upper section features an Alien Arch leading to an unknown location, as well as a terminal that ends the game.

Depending on whether the player has already acquired Al-An or not, a forcefield will prevent entry. Should Al-An be in Robin's head, it will shut down upon approach.

Interior

Beyond the entryway is the Power Room, which contains a massive machine that appears to be a power source, presumably for a warp gate. It is believed that once Al-An acquires his body, he will be able to activate the machine.

In the back of the Power Room is a doorway to another large room that is currently empty. It is unknown what may be here in the future.

Story

While the player can find Alien Research Site Zero at any point in the story, it can only be accessed once Al-An has taken residence in Robin's mind.

Once Al-An has acquired a new vessel, he suggests that Robin meet with him at the site. It is assumed that from here, Al-An will be able to return to the Architect homeworld via warp gate.
