| We use the time on cans to ensure that they do not reach the end of their 2 hour lifespan and pop, wasting the ore inside. The time on a can should remain the same as that was the time it was jettisoned, and not the time when it's name was changed. | | We use the time on cans to ensure that they do not reach the end of their 2 hour lifespan and pop, wasting the ore inside.

| ===== Mine Aligned =====
| |
|
| |
| The 'Mine Aligned' procedure is primarily designed to help get you out of sticky situations, it is not a definite method for avoiding danger or contact with opposition. All "Mining Aligned" means is that when you've got all of your roids targeted and your lasers are beaming away, you just align to the nearest Stargate or celestial object in system and then drop your speed to a standstill and mine normally. This is in place so that if a pirate comes into your belt and flips your jetcan or some reds make their way into system/belt, your align/warp time is reduced - thus giving the aggressor less time to lock you up and blow you to smithereens.
