A '''Surface Outpost''' is a [[Planets|planetary]] or [[Moons|lunar]] outpost with open [[Landing Pad|docking facilities]] for [[ships]] and [[SRV]]s. They range in size from small settlements to larger, semi-enclosed cities, and can be located with the [[Planetary Map|planetary map]] of a landable body. Various services and exclusive [[Mission Board/Types|mission types]] are available. Some Surface Outposts offer exclusive [[Commodities]] that cannot be procured elsewhere. Local security forces utilize both ships and [[Skimmers]].

Surface Outposts differ from [[Settlement|settlements]] in that Surface Outposts can be docked at. Surface Outposts are identifiable in the Navigation pane as having an icon three buildings: one small, one medium, and one large. Settlements have an icon with just two buildings and an antenna.

== How to use Outposts == [[File:Courier-Role.jpg|thumb|200px|Courier at a surface outpost]]Outposts are ground based equivalents of (orbital) outposts. When in a ship you should treat them exactly the same. You’ll need to request docking, and should refrain from committing crimes if you want to stay safe and welcome!<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/node/348 Elite Dangerous: Horizons - Quick Start Guide] </ref>

When in your [[SRV]], if your ship is docked at a planetary outpost, you’ll need to request docking to get back to it. After docking has been approved, follow the nav-compass – it will lead you to a nearby garage.

Once in the garage, you can use the role switch interface to board your ship.

Be aware: if your ship is docked at a outpost, you cannot recall it to your location if you are within a few kilometers. You will need to move further away from the outpost or request docking to get back to your ship.
