You stack your salvage near the bottom of the stairwell and make your way back towards the two last doors. Those doors strangely don't seem to be locked, unlike all the other doors on this floor. A quick look inside leads you to believe those used to be some sort of restroom or lavatories. You doubt there is anything of value in there, unless you feel like the Frontier is in dire need of new alien toilet technology...

You make your way back to the stairs, the robot is a bit difficult to drag upstairs, especially if you want to avoid damaging it... You eventually reach the next floor, which you recognize as the one where you fought all those crab things and where Nero got his electromagnetic gadget thingie... You do remember that the doors were also locked on this level.

Mesec does not find any traces of his crabs friend, other then the ones you murdered here... He checks his space space suit and notice some of the crabs did bite into it and punctured it a bit when it served as an untimely distraction. It is salvageable, but it will definitely provide no protection from the vacuum of space, not before some repairs at least.

Sorrack works his magic yet again, and you enter a room which seems like some sort of data centre. You have gutted pieces of alien equipment which may or may not have been servers. Hard to say with them being all melted like that.

You would almost be tempted to ask yourself who could have done this if it were not for the 3 holes leaking crab guts being a good indicator...

Mesec kicks the door, but it does not budge. It seems like this might require some tool assistance...

Sorrack knocks on the metallic door with his ore sample. A loud metallic clang sounds resonate in the empty complex. For a moment, you fear you might have attracted unwanted attention... until you are answered with the splotch of crab guts falling on the floor in the next room and remember they all most likely were killed by the EMP blast...

While the door does not open, Sorrack does notice he left a really small dent in it. Perhaps more vigorous knocking might allow you to demolish the door but this might come at the cost of one of your precious sample... Of course, Sorrack does not need as big of a hole as the rest of the group...
