Launch a mining satellite into orbit around Planet’s first Moon, Nessus.
Each Nessus Mining Station increases the minerals output of all of its faction’s bases by +1. The minerals bonus is halved for bases without Aerospace Complexes. A base can utilize one Mining Station for each unit of population.
Mining stations can be destroyed by an asteroid strike or by other factions using Orbital Defense Pods.
The launch of a faction’s first satellite enables them to map all unexplored portions of Planet.
Can only be launched from a base which already has an Aerospace Complex.
