Tritium
Tritium is a beta-emitting radioactive isotope of hydrogen. It is an important ingredient for boosting nuclear fusion reactions.
— In-Game Description
Tritium is a Chemical Commodity that is primarily used as a specialised fuel for Capital Ships, namely the Farragut Battle Cruiser, Majestic Class Interdictor, and Drake-Class Carrier.[1] It can be purchased from Starports with a Refinery economy, or mined from surface and sub-surface deposits on icy asteroids.[1][2]
Notes
- Tritium was added with the Fleet Carriers Update on June 9, 2020.[3]
- Tritium's potency as Fleet Carrier fuel was doubled on August 14, 2020 in a server-side change made to address Tritium's increased rarity in Hotspots, which was a side-effect of efforts to balance Hotspot yields of other mined commodities.[4]
