Discovery Notes
"It's the Geiger Counter! Every spaceship needs one of these, but I don't actually know what it's for. Every once in a while, it goes wild and lets out a lot of noise, but I never pay much attention to it, so it doesn't do me much good. I really should read that instruction manual one of these days!"

Ship Log
"This noisy gauge is always letting of spontaneous clicks and buzzes. It can be kind of annoying."

Trivia

 * A Geiger Counter is a device used to measure radioactivity in a given area. The clicks and buzzes Olimar mentions is the Geiger Counter reading the amount of radiation which means that PNF-404 might have been exposed to intense radiation in the past.
