The front entrance to the east section leads to a main room and a flooded moonpool. A locked door in this area requires an access key formerly carried by Zip (see [Hot Caves](Hot Caves)). This locked door leads to an office, storage rooms, and an upper NoA Terminal room. ### Exterior Scans-The outside of the structure provides scans for:-* [[Power Transmitter]]-* [[Tadpole]]-* [[Hydroelectric Turbine]]-* [[Spotlight]]+Scanning the exterior of the Tadpole Pens yields blueprints for:+* [Power Transmitter](Power Transmitter)+* [Tadpole](Tadpole)+* [Hydroelectric Turbine](Hydroelectric Turbine)+* [Spotlight](Spotlight) ### South Section The south section contains scans for:-* [[Power Cell Terminal]]-* [[Trashcan]]-* [[Processor]]+* [Power Cell Terminal](Power Cell Terminal)+* [Trashcan](Trashcan)+* [Processor](Processor) -It also contains a data card unlocking blueprints for:-* [[Small Crate]]-* [[Wall Panel]]-* [[Wall Unit Large]]-* [[Wall Unit Small]]-* [[Wall Vent]]-* [[Wall Vent Large]]+It also contains a data card unlocking the following habitat components:+* [Small Crate](Small Crate)+* [Wall Panel](Wall Panel)+* [Wall Unit Large](Wall Unit Large)+* [Wall Unit Small](Wall Unit Small)+* [Wall Vent](Wall Vent)+* [Wall Vent Large](Wall Vent Large) -Additionally, this section holds the databank entry **RUBY: Tadpole ops guide**.+Additionally, the databank entry **RUBY: Tadpole ops guide** can be found here. ### North Section-The north section contains the databank entry **NAHEMA: We must voluntarily die** and a [[Moonpool]] data card.
