After finishing off the challenges at Annihilation Nation and confirming reports from Al on the Starship Phoenix, Ratchet and Clank warp to the Zygan System.

This is a spherical world with artificial gravity and atmosphere. If you have played R&C Going Commando, you are familiar with spherical worlds already. The [start] button shows a bird's eye map which can be rotated and moved up and down. Very cool effect, and gives you the correct position where Ratchet is, compared to the next objective. Load the Refractor. Point the laser to the reflector dish aginst the fence. This open the bridge giving us access to the asteroid.

You're pretty well free to roam around the asteroid all you want. Our only enemy here is a handful of sweep-bots. The objective is to link up all the orbiting satellites with one continuous laser beam. On the ground are power bounce pads. Go to the sparking pads with the arrows. Press X and power bounce to a high level platform. Load the Refractor again and aim the laser beam to hit a nearby satellite. The satellite will re-direct the beam to a new platform. Follow the beam.

Work your way around the asteroid using the bird's eye map to find the next location to jump to. Along the way, sweep-bots will swarm you when you least expect it. Whack them with your wrench. No need to load any weapon. Avoid the lava, because it stings and will take health away. Some of the later satellites require precision jumping on hover pads using them like a set of stairs to get to the platforms. At one point, Ratchet has to jump through an asteroid belt.

Skill Point: Get To The Belt. While jumping from one platform to another, land Ratchet on one of the big rocks in the asteroid belt for a skill point (not easy!).

Before completing the laser link-up, go down into the valley of the moon. One of the tunnels, is protected by a forcefield. Not too far away is a floor plate with a magneto switch. Load the Hypershot. Zap the magneto. This releases the forcefield back at the tunnel. Run quickly. The switch only stays on for a limited time. Inside the tunnel is a titanium bolt. Grab the bolt. Zap the magneto switch with the Hypershot, inside the tunnel, to get back out to the valley.

 |
Go back to the final platform and connect the last satellite to the hover platform with the domed forcefield. The forcefield will dissipate and Ratchet can power bounce over to the huge transmission reflector dish. From here, take the teleport pad back to the ship. MISSION COMPLETE.
