The Spherical Atlas is a treasure found in Pikmin 2. This item resembles the northern hemisphere of the globe resembling Earth; this being a representation of Earth suggests that the Pikmin Planet is Earth. This heavy treasure is found on the last sublevel 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 one hundred weaker Pikmin can carry. This is also the first cave Purple Pikmin and violet candypop buds are found in, on the same sublevel as the treasure.
To obtain it, Olimar and Louie must defeat some Snow Bulborbs.
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 S.S. Dolphin. The Geographic Projection is also a globe half, this time a southern hemisphere; and it too unlocks the Perplexing Pool.

Trivia
- The globe depicts the world as it appeared sometime before the German Reunification (East Germany can be seen). This occurred on October 3, 1990, slightly under 14 years before the release of Pikmin 2.
