This allow you to build them quickly~~ and with few materials. They will have the ''Structure'' as ''Spaceship'', which means they don't have an FTL drive. Their names often include "Beginner", "Starter", "Rocket" or "Moon". In the design information, check on the '''ENGINEERING''' section, under '''[.~~..]m<sup>3<~~/~~sup> Maneuver Drive''' you should read: '''Rocket Drive Module Q[...]'''. Check on the '''AVIONICS''' section, under '''[...]m<sup>3<~~/~~sup> Life Support''' you should read that it's '''Life Support Module Q[...~~]~~''' and NOT '''Life Support ''Gravity'' Module Q[...]'''.

You can find ship blueprints on the [https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/browse/?appid=2239520 Steam Workshop], which can also be accessed through the in-game [[Blueprint_Exchange#Spacecraft_Blueprint_Exchange\|Spacecraft Blueprint Exchange]].

Now would be a good time to check your system for [[cryozine]]. Having both an [[observatory]] and an [[Airport_Radar\|airport radar]] will generate a [[System_Survey\|system survey]] of your home system, after which you can see world resources on the [[System_Map\|system map]]. Simply click on the body to see its resources.

	This will require setting up a [[refinery]] to extract cryozine from the ~~cold~~ atmosphere, and production of [[~~Cryo Heat Sink~~]]s. If your starting system has ~~none~~, see [[Building Your First Interstellar Colony]].		Only worlds in the '''frigid''' [[Orbit_Zone\|orbit-zone]] with a non-standard [[atmosphere]] will contain cryozine. Cryozine is necessary for the production of [[Weapon_Bay_Module\|energy weapon]] modules and [[Energy_Weapon_Lens\|energy weapon lenses]], which are recommended for destroying the [[asteroid]] threat. The [[asteroid]] will impact your homeworld one week from when you started, and will annihilate your planet if left unchecked, so this should be a priority. This will require setting up a [[refinery]] to extract cryozine from the frigid atmosphere, and production of [[Cryo_Heat_Sink\|cryo heat sink]]s.

			If your starting system has no cryozine, see the [[Building Your First Interstellar Colony]] guide.
