Mine more rocks.
Not really much to write about this time, except that I think I am a professional asteroid hopper now. I've been focused on helping out on the effort to build the station and I'm in the top 75% of contributors, which tells me either there's only a few big contributors, or I'm actually good at this. I'm going to guess it's the former. It was only today I figured out:
1) prospect first -- you get a higher yield
2) look at the surface and subsurface materials. If they're what you're after, mining lasers will do great.
3) ditch stuff you don't want
4) I can control *2* collector limpets! Not just one...and the prospector doesn't count towards that 2.
If I'd known any of these before, I'd probably be a lot richer.
