Planetoid Grabbing
Backstory:
Popular, and not so popular, scientists join The Galactic Science Core each day.
One of the more popular ones was Susan Jenkins, working under Elena Jenkins11957. She specialises in planetoid research.
her research takes her most often into the fields as she attempts to annalise the core components that make up a planetoid or roid.
Her most recent discovery was that ice existed on planetoids. Coupled together with technology that stargate productions made from old starship frames, they were able to make a small pod-like vehicle called a planetoid grabber.
They then fitted tubes onto this and made the official planetoid grabber, available in stores today. In this activity you take your vehicle to the planetoid and collect samples of ice and its core.
You will need:
A planetoid grabbing vehicle
a starship with a vehicle bay in it
What to do:
- Take your vehicle out onto a planetoid. To get to a planetoid, head out of local space, and find a planetoid field. scan it, then move to its coordinates. Land the ship before you try to take the vehicle outside.
- Collect the ice.
- While you're there, collect the core samples.
- When your cargo is full, return to a landing bay and transfer your goods.
- celebrate at the high cash payout!

Note, you can also buy an upgrade to load your collected ice and planetoid core on a ship.
Warning,
Collecting core samples from planetoids is dangerous. If you collect too many samples from a planetoids core, the planetoid will become unstable, resulting in its destruction.
Scanner information:
You will notice that some asteroids and planetoids have what seems to be a jumble of letters after their names, not to be confused with their designation.
All asteroids and planetoids are classified by their field number, followed by a single letter, for example:
123-a, 123-b.
In addition to these letters however some other things are shown for each to help you.
For example: asteroid 123-a (E-G) indicates an asteroid containing gas and that has not been explored. These letters are always shown in brackets.
For your reference, a list of meanings are below:
H: contains minerals.
G: contains gas.
O: Contains organic material.
I: Contains ice.
E: Has yet to be explored.
T: contains trash.
Commands:
See help vehicle commands for a list of common vehicle commands.
