Unlock by scanning fragments found in wrecks and debris fields — use the Scanner Room to locate nearby fragments faster.

Plan your base layout before placing — deconstruction returns materials but repositioning multiple modules takes time during longer sessions.

Total material cost is 5 items across 3 types — plan a dedicated gathering run or keep materials stocked in a locker near your Habitat Builder.

Requires the Habitat Builder — build one in your base early, as many mid-game upgrades and modifications share this specialized crafting station.
