{{Connecting Rooms|rooms=[[Biotech Research Area 2]]</br>[[Deck Alpha Mech Shaft]]}}'''Connection Elevator to Deck Alpha''' is a room located in the [[Space Pirate Frigate]] region of [[Metroid Prime]]. It is the room in which the first Item Loss sequence is activated. This can be skipped with the [[Frigate Wallcrawl]], but since the game also removes your items when landing on [[Landing Site (Tallon Overworld)|Landing Site]], this hasn't solved Item Loss Skip for Prime 1.
