  • Approximately 'twenty years ago' in the events of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, an organic supercomputer was designed by the Galactic Federation. It was an supercomputer that could link to a vast network. The super computer was named Aurora. They controled entire areas and would stop and warn about oncoming threats. And to give help to Samus Aran throughout her questing. The Aurora Unit's brain- suggests that the popular Mother Brain was indeed an type of Aurora Unit.
  • Twenty years prior to the events of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, a team of Federation scientists announced the birth of an organic super computer. Its name was Aurora. Since that historic date, thousands of Auroras have been built and installed. Originally designed for scientific purposes, the Auroras are now used in government, business, and military roles as well. They are given male, female, or gender-neutral personas, based on the needs and desires of the staff at the facility they are to serve in. A vast network links all existing Auroras, allowing them to access a tremendous database without peer.

  • An Aurora Unit is an organic supercomputer used by the Galactic Federation for scientific, government, business, and military purposes. They are first seen in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.

It was an supercomputer that could link to a vast network. The super computer was named Aurora. They controled entire areas and would stop and warn about oncoming threats. And to give help to Samus Aran throughout her questing. The Aurora Unit's brain- suggests that the popular Mother Brain was indeed an type of Aurora Unit.
  • "Twenty years ago (prior to the events of Metroid Prime 3 Corruption), a team of Galactic Federation scientists announced the birth of an organic super computer. Its name was Aurora. Since that historic date, thousands of Auroras have been built and installed. Originally designed for scientific purposes, the Auroras are now used in government, business, and military roles as well. They are given male, female, or gender-neutral personas, based on the needs and desires of the staff at the facility they are to serve in. A vast network links all existing Auroras, allowing them to access a tremendous database without peer." During the events of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, The Federation's Aurora Units had been corrupted by a Phazon-based virus, with the Federation believing Space Pirates are to blame. An Aurora Unit, Aurora Unit 313, had also been stolen by Space Pirates from the GF ship G.F.S Valhalla. Samus finds three of the many in the game. They are Aurora Unit 242, 313, and 217. Aurora unit 486 is also mentioned in a scan as the designer of the terra-forming project on Norion, before it was uninhabitable. Aurora Units always talk in collective first person, much like the Borg in Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Voyager. The Aurora Units bear a striking resemblance to the Mother Brain, though Auroras have a more mechanical look compared to the mostly organic Mother Brain. The Mother Brain was built by the Chozo, though the manga indicates that the Federation had some part in this as well, as she was built to link the Federation and Chozo information databases, similar to the function of the Auroras. The B.O.X. class security droid's brain resembles an Aurora Unit.

Aurora Unit 486 is also mentioned in a scan as the designer of the terra-forming project on Norion, because before the planet was uninhabitable. Aurora Units always talk in collective first person, much like the Borg in Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Voyager. The Aurora Units bear a striking resemblance to the Mother Brain, though Auroras have a more mechanical look compared to the mostly organic Mother Brain. The Mother Brain was built by the Chozo many years before the AUs' creation, though the manga indicates that the Federation had some part in this as well, as she was built to link the Federation and Chozo information databases, similar to the function of the Auroras. Additionally, a trailer for Corruption shows blueprints made by the Federation for a "future Aurora Unit complex" nearly identical to Tourian [1] Beyond this, there is no concrete evidence as to how the supercomputers are related. However, in Metroid: Other M, which chronologically takes place after Corruption, it is revealed that the Galactic Federation created a replica of Tourian, codenamed Sector Zero, as well as an A.I (based on Mother Brain's) which originally possessed a form resembling a large featureless brain; this was known as MB. The Aurora Units may have been the predecessors of this technology (in other words, MB may be an advanced AU model). The B.O.X. class security droid's brain resembles an Aurora Unit. Also, the exposed head of Quadraxis is similar to an Aurora Unit. This has led to speculation that they can be installed into weapons platforms.
