Analyse

Analyse mission progress

Collect data on the expanding void. You will be provided with Hyperspace Sensors that need to be install on the hull of the ship. During FTL jumps, these sensors collect data. You will receive $1000 per data at each magnitude of collection: 10, 100, 1000, etc.

Procedural Contracts

If the contract is not completed in time, it fails. The supply boxes from failed contracts will remain on your ship until the next shuttle brings contract supplies.
