Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

Yup, the relatively small credits reward you get from exobiology isn't worth spending hours and hours over. Much more rewarding to do the Cartographics stuff from space. I like to make a change from that when the opportunity arises though by exploring planet surfaces when any promising landable ones show up. Ill try to be more efficient in future though, knowing what I know now...

Well stratum is a decent payout (over 800K each isn't it) and not too hard to locate. Otherwise, yes you can make more from staying in space when exploring I feel.
 
For the miners...

This neare by planet has more than 40 geological spots.

Update: All 5 rings are Icy in this system, although hospots aren't that numerous and I have no idea about the density it's a good refeul spot, on the other hand Geological Signals are numerous.

This one is still a work in progress - eventually it'll be my sneaking about thing:

In that case, here's mine. Just found myself a grade 2 domi

Believe it or not...I've never done it yet...
I'm doing a few right now.

Here's a typical run:

That's roughly 25 million right there. It takes about 10 to 12 minutes to:
  • Pick the missions and assign them to each cabin
  • Leave Robigo and make two jumps
  • Supercruise to Sirius Atmospherics
  • Scan the beacon there
  • Make two jumps back
  • Supercruise to Robigo
  • Unload and cash in.
Rinse, repeat. I typically get in 5 or 6 runs per hour.
 
That's one of the many things I truly love about this game: it's a never ending learning experience.
Yeah, same here, one of my favourtie things is to search for materials, Guardian stuff being top, and there are always new sources I don't know about...

Pity tools like Carrier Router can get in the way, I would have been further than the Norma Expanse, in fact, I was aiming for the Arcadian Stream when I ran into trouble with it, I had enough fuel for this.

Well, I'll go back sooner than later, and I sill have to learn to use FSS...
 
@Marvin the Martian, Here are the proceeds of my first hour mining in a Platinum hotspot I found yesterday...

I nearly, for science, tried to go into orbit here. But my bottle went and I left.

On could say there is a three-way choice of elevation device...are they about the same max power/speed?

I stood in front of a Lava Spout on a hot planet until my health was almost depleted...good thing the Artemis suit has at least one medkit... ;)
