Players are able to mine resources from planetary ring systems and asteroid belts in orbit around stars. Once a [[Mining Laser|mining laser]] and [[refinery]] module is equipped the player can fire at a suitable asteroid and use their cargo scoop to collect the asteroid chunks. They can then be sold to a station or outpost on the commodities market.

[[Limpet]]s - disposable autonomous drones - can be very helpful when mining. [[Limpet Controller/Prospector|Prospector]] limpets can help you find the best resources, while [[Limpet Controller/Collector|Collector]] limpets can retrieve mined asteroid chunks for you.
