The Mega Proton Missile is actually composed of three normal Proton Missiles.
Proton Missile is a permanent weapon tool in the Space Stage of Spore.
It was initially obtained by scanning the crashed spaceship which was transferred to the player. It is a guided weapon with a long-range and shot at every second, but it will detonate harmlessly if it travels too far without hitting its target. Proton Missiles can be launched to attack any spaceships, vehicles, and turrets.

- The name "Proton Missile" is most likely a reference to proton torpedoes from Star Wars. They also have a similar glow effect to photon torpedoes in Star Trek.
