The Space Float is a ship part found in Pikmin. It allows someone to stay adrift in space if their ship is shot out from under them.

Collecting the Part

The Space Float, sitting on a patch of grass in front of Olimar.

The flotation device is found in the stomach of a Breadbug, which is running around the hill the landing site rests upon. To get it, the Breadbug should take hold of an item such as a pellet or shearwig carcass. Then, Olimar must throw enough pikmin at the object that the Breadbug starts to be pulled toward the Onion. Once it reaches the Onion, it takes massive damage. Olimar can also throw pikmin directly on top of the Breadbug; though throwing Pikmin at the Breadbug results in minimal damage, locking on from one spot can allow you to keep throwing Pikmin at it without missing, thus killing the Breadbug in just a minute or two.
