Previously, moon mining was completed using [[player-owned starbases]], but the Lifeblood expansion introduced a new class of [[Upwell structures]] called [[Upwell structures#Refineries|refineries]], which—if anchored in 0.5 space or below near a moon mining beacon—can use a Standup Moon Drill to extract a chunk of the moon for mining. | The Lifeblood expansion was released on October 24, 2017, and brought with it substantial changes to the process of moon mining.
