The Spherical Atlas is a treasure in the game Pikmin 2. It is a northern hemisphere of a globe; this being a representation of Earth suggests that the Pikmin planet is Earth. This heavy treasure is found on the last sublevel (2) of the Emergence Cave in the Valley of Repose. It requires at least one Purple Pikmin on it to lift it, as it weighs 101 units, more than 100, the maximum weight 100 weaker Pikmin can carry. This is also the first cave Purple Pikmin are found in, on the same sublevel as the treasure.
When this treasure has been retrieved, the Sphere Chart, part of the Exploration Kit, is unlocked, granting access to the Awakening Wood. This is made possible through the co-ordinates it provides the ship. The Geographic Projection is also a globe half, this time a southern hemisphere; and it too unlocks a new area (Perplexing Pool).
Notes
Ship's dialogs
“It's inconceivable that such an immense object has been buried here for so long.
The design on the outer shell resembles the surface of the planet as seen from space!
Perhaps this can be used for something other than salvage.
But how will we ever lift it? I fear that even 100 red Pikmin will be unable to lift it!
There is a device resembling a microchip embedded inside this sphere. Retrieving data...
...Error. I could only decode a portion of the data, but I did retrieve new geographic charts.
I will input this data into my planetary database and name it the Sphere Chart.
Press START/PAUSE to contact me and access the Exploration Kit on the radar screen with L.
Now that we have this new data, you should explore the decoded territory tomorrow.”Olimar's journal

Trivia
- The globe depicts the world prior to the dissolution of the Soviet Union on December 25, 1991. Although central Europe is hardly recognizable, the Baltic and central Asian states are clearly part of what is now the Russian Federation. An odd design choice, considering the game did not start development until more than ten years later, yet the globe was not textured to show signs of aging as would be expected.
