Proposal: New mining resource


Recommended Posts

Spica.  Obtained by harvesters operating on Duna.

Any Kerbal that boards such a harvester vessel gets a one-step boost to their experience level (which means they will eventually be able to reach level 6) but if you ever have fewer harvesters operating than you have boosted Kerbals, random boosted Kerbals die until the numbers match.

Note that such harvesters will occasionally be attacked and destroyed by indigenous life unless they have the ability to escape (flight in some form.)

"I must not fear.

Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.

I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.

And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.

Only I will remain."

Scientist and Engineer skills extend to level 6 easily enough, but to fit with Dune, level 6 pilots would gain the ability to automatically calculate transfer windows.  And of course their skin turns blue.  (Yes, it should just be their eyes, but the skin is easier to see.)
