The Cicada is the colony ship that broke apart over Proteus, and its hull sections are now scattered across the moon's oceans as named wrecks. Each one holds databank entries, blueprints, and recipe data cards tied to the ship's story, and a few gate progression behind tools like the Repair Tool or Sonic Resonator.
Lander Garage
The Lander Garage sits in the Plateaus close to the Lead Zone, with the wreck entrance at roughly -308000, 410000, -6000. It is the closest Cicada section to the starting Lifepod and doubles as the main early-game lead farm thanks to the deposits scattered around its hull.
Some interior doors are damaged and will not open until you bring a Repair Tool. Inside you can pick up fragments for the Bioreactor, Rebreather, and Tadpole (x2), plus an Anomaly recipe data card and a Room recipe data card. The databank rewards are the Cicada Wreck (Lander Garage) entry and the Ruby log.
Empty Hold
Empty Hold lies in the Graveyard, about 170m north of the Tailings Village and 190m west of the Tadpole Pens. Entrance coordinates are -289850, 433841, -7727. The Graveyard runs hot, so Heat Tolerance Adaptation makes the approach safer.
The wreck contains the Biobed (Inventory Expansion) fragment, a Power Cell Terminal fragment, and the Half Round Room recipe data card. Databank entries here include Cicada Wreck (Empty Hold) and Nahema's "Play God" log.
Canteen
The Canteen straddles the border between the Shallows and the Dolerite Spires, roughly 200m south of the Welcome Center, with the entrance at -338090, 458300, -8500. It is one of the more rewarding early stops because of the Moonpool recipe data card and a Wiring Kit waiting inside.
Other pickups include the CHBC Live Poster, the Just Keep Swimming Poster, the Processor fragment, and the Repair Tool fragment. Databank entries: Cicada Wreck (Canteen) and Nahema's "How we got here" log.
EVA Prep
EVA Prep is located at the Karakorum Power Plant, directly above the Upper Generator Control Room. Entrance coordinates are -162902, 455778, -10078. As with Lander Garage, several doors are jammed and require a Repair Tool to open.
The interior holds Copper Wire (x3) and unlocks the Cicada Wreck (EVA Prep) databank entry, along with the Iso log.
Therapy Room
The Therapy Room is the sixth named Cicada section. Its precise coordinates, blueprint rewards, and databank contents are not yet confirmed in the current Early Access data.
Stairway to Heaven
Stairway to Heaven sits about 460m east-northeast of the Karakorum Power Plant, at -123370, 422174, -32652. The entrances are sealed by Bloom Biofilm, so a Sonic Resonator is required to clear them and get inside.
The wreck rewards two copies of the High Capacity Air Tank Blueprint and the Cicada Wreck (Stairway to Heaven) databank entry. It is also the only way into a cavern that contains a Bloom Node, so plan a return trip once you are ready to tackle that fight.

What to bring before you dive in
Two tools cover almost every Cicada Wreck. The Repair Tool unblocks damaged doors at Lander Garage and EVA Prep, and the Sonic Resonator clears Bloom Biofilm at Stairway to Heaven. Heat Tolerance Adaptation, picked up from the infected Angel Comb near the Necrolei Hills, makes the Graveyard approach to Empty Hold survivable.
If you are running these as an early-to-mid-game checklist, Canteen is the cleanest first stop because it gives you the Moonpool recipe data card, the Repair Tool fragment, and a Wiring Kit in one trip. Pick up the Sonic Resonator from Hills Wreck 1 or Shallows Wreck 5 before pushing toward Stairway to Heaven.
