Asteroid Miners	comment	Spectrographic analysis of the asteroids in Earth's solar system show that there's tons of mineral wealth just floating out there waiting for some daring Prospector with a rocket, a spacesuit, and a drill to go get it. Creators of science fiction thus came up with the image of the Belters (also known as Rock Rats, Rockskippers, and so on) as rugged, independent types who prefer the freedom of a one-man spaceship and a life of hard work to living under someone else's rules. It should also be noted that asteroid mining is one of the things that make Alien Invasions somewhat inefficient. It's much easier to pull materials and resources from a low-gravity asteroid than the huge gravity well of a planet. Not to mention not having to deal with the indigenous population. Stories that feature miners IN SPACE! draw a lot of inspiration from (and sometimes directly steal from) stories regarding the various gold and silver rushes of the 1800s. A notable aspect of this is that, since space is essentially infinite from a human perspective, the main factor that ended the historic gold rushes — that, eventually, the frontier closes and you run out of easily available deposits to prospect — isn't a factor for asteroid miners. When your local areas become played out and frontiersman mining is no longer viable, you can always move to another star system and start over. Often they will end up processing their ore in a Mobile Factory. Can be difficult if they work in an Asteroid Thicket. Not to be confused with Space Mines or Spice Mines.

Asteroid Miners / int_1852cbb9	comment	There are two ways you can do this in Starbound. The first is to build a pillar (or use techs) to go past your planet's atmosphere, where you can find asteroids floating about. The second is to visit an Asteroid Biome. One advantage of this is that it's very easy to see where all the ores and minerals are, making it easy to mine compared to spelunking. Several disadvantages are that the ores are mostly embedded in meteor rock (or worse, magma rock) that makes it very slow to mine, the second is getting an EPP in order to breathe (which you don't get until you can get your hands on some tungsten). In the early beta, you also had to get clothes/armor that provide enough warmth because, well, Space Is Cold (unless you want to be silly and bring a campfire/nanostove to keep you warm).

Asteroid Miners / int_2acb12c5	comment	The X series has mining elements, mostly consisting of breaking up asteroids with lasers and then collecting the results. Until X3: Albion Prelude, if the mining was done remotely, from another sector, it led to an infinitely respawning supply. Placing a mining station on the asteroid is more expensive, but is safer, requires less management, and makes more money in the long run. There are four wares that can be extracted from Asteroids: Ore, Silicon, Ice, and Nividium. Since Ore and Silicon are required to produce Techs, every player-friendly race sells Mines for them; Ice is only used by Terrans to obtain Water, so they are the only ones who sell the "Ice Harvesting Facility"; lastly, Nividium is the most valued mineral, but the places where you can sell (at only 2 units at a time!) can be counted on the fingers of your hands, not to mention that there aren't any Mines for it. Nividium mines were added in X3: Farnham's Leagacy, and it is possible to sell Nividium from the player headquarters by the hundreds or even thousands. A good-sized asteroid can yield several hundred, but gathering it all takes several hours even with a dozen or more (fairly expensive) miners active with the proprietary mining software plus a mothership for mobile drop off when full, making it a slow means of making enough money to break even.

One of the main characters owns a hollowed-out asteroid, on the other hand, but that is less a case of asteroid mining, and more using it for a hideout.

However, you should be wary of any possible Morrigi asteroid traps. A triggered trap creates a strong gravity field that pulls the ships to it, as well as any surrounding asteroids, to destroy the offenders.

Asteroid Miners / int_7988cb68	comment	Mentioned in the Codex of Mass Effect: In Mass Effect, almost every single star system containing an asteroid belt has at least one asteroid that you can scan, for easy money and XP. Just put the reticle over it, and press one button... to claim it for the Alliance and mark its location for others to mine. You're a soldier, after all, not a miner. Omega from Mass Effect 2 is an entire city built within the hollowed out remains of a mined-out asteroid. The asteroid was originally a huge chuck of extremely valuable element zero, and as more miners showed up to take it apart, the city grew and the asteroid shrank. When the eezo finally ran out, the city was abandoned to the massive black market and underworld presence that had built up around the mostly-unpoliced city. Also in Mass Effect 2, Legion, a geth, mentions that they prefer to gain resources this way. It is efficient, as mentioned on the page. In the third game's Leviathan DLC, one of the places you visit is an asteroid-mining colony where something strange has happened to the population...

Asteroid Miners / int_7da2ca56	comment	The Formic Wars novel Earth Unaware focuses on a Venezuelan clan of free miners whose ship El Cavador ("the digger" in Spanish) travels through the Kuiper Belt, looking for large enough asteroids to mine. Whenever one is found, the miners use the ship's laser drill to reach valuable pockets, extract them, and load them into unmanned "quickships", which are then sent to the Moon for processing. They are a fairly small clan with a single ship and constantly try to survive in the outskirts of the Solar System, trading with other free miner clans, fighting off Space Pirates, and avoiding mining ships run by Mega Corps. As it happens, El Cavador is the first ship to detect the arrival of the Formics. During the invasion, asteroid miners (both free and corporate) play a key role in thwarting the Formics, since this is prior to the creation of the Space Navy, and miners are the only ones with any experience in space combat.

Asteroid Miners / int_d4f11a60	comment	The Elite series features asteroids that can be blown apart with a special (and otherwise largely useless) Mining Laser into fragments that can be scooped into the cargo bay and sold. A third-party add-on for Oolite adds a ship accessory (which Elite Dangerous also has) that turns your ship into a Mobile Factory of sorts, giving a small chance of extracting higher-value cargo from the fragments. It's a low-risk, low-reward and generally Boring, but Practical way of grinding for cash. More adventurous miners can equip mining charges and blow an asteroid to pieces to reach the highest-value ores inside... provided you don't blow yourself up or crash into a piece of debris on the way in.

Asteroid Miners / int_d67b1b80	comment	In Meteos, Mekks was originally one of these. After the original owners left, however, the worker robots gained sentience and created its own peaceful civilization. (The game calls it a planet, but it's really about the size of the dwarf planet Ceres.)

They can't communicate with the alien, but one officer sees that his ship is an asteroid miner's ship and makes the connection.

Asteroid Miners / int_e235270c	comment	In Stellaris you can build mining stations in asteroid belts and some uninhabitable planets. Additionally, it's possible to come across fleets of ancient mining drones that outlived their creators and continue to harvest minerals from asteroids. Depending on your civilization's ethics, you can quietly observe them to try to learn their techniques, attack and tear them apart for resources, or trace their communications to discover some mineral-rich planets. They also pose an early-game danger, as the drone fleets will try to "mine" your ships if you get too close.

Asteroid Miners / int_e6267766	comment	Star Wars Legends: Asteroid miners near Ithor in Galaxy of Fear dig too deep and find Spore. This isn't just an Asteroid Thicket, it has giant space slugs, too. Anakin and Obi-Wan's investigation into Darth Sidious takes them to an asteroid mining operation in Labyrinth of Evil. The Commerce Guild mined out a large asteroid until it was hollow and concave, then set up shop there, using tractor beams to pull in smaller asteroids for dismantling. A short story in The Illustrated Star Wars Universe describes Durga the Hutt's efforts to mine the asteroid field in the Hoth system. His engineers came up with massive, automated mining ships that could be loosed to harvest asteroids quickly and efficiently. Unfortunately, when the first two Automated Mineral Exploiter vessels were first activated, they immediately detected and proceeded to carve into some fantastically rich sources of metal — each other. Quoth the engineers, "We should point out that mechanically, these massive haulers performed flawlessly." In Razor's Edge, the Space Pirates' clearinghouse is in an old large-scale asteroid mine. The place is riddled with passageways both in-use and abandoned, strewn with leftover mining equipment in various states of disrepair. At one point, lacking a quick way back to their ship from a deep cavern, Han hijacks a tunnel borer and simply makes a new passage.

Asteroid Miners / int_e80fa454	comment	In the lore of Battleborn, the Detritus Ring, the asteroid belt home of the Rogues, has asteroid mining going on. In particular is Chunk Braxon III which is a major mining base on one of the larger chunks. They produce some semi-rare ore used in manufacturing of robots that gives Minion Robotics (and therefore the LLC) a stake in protecting the colony. Enough wealth flows through this colony that many notable Rogues frequent here as a mainstay of embezzling, theft, and other dips into the LLC cash flow.

The ship is called a "Kraken-class Meteor Miner", named after its resemblance to a giant squid. A bunch of mechanical tentacles grab and pull asteroids towards a huge drill consisting of three serrated metal plates, and the processing equipment and crew quarters forms the mantle.
