'''Cosmic Anomalies''' (not to be confused with [[Cosmic Signatures]]) are [[exploration]] PvE sites that can be found throughout EVE. They are found using the [[Scanning#On-board_System_Scanner|system scanner]], and require no skills to locate (unlike [[Cosmic Signatures]], which require probes and probing skills).

There are several types of Cosmic Anomalies:  


* '''[[Cosmic Anomalies#Combat Sites|Combat Sites]]''' contain multiple NPC rats to be killed with a combat ship. They come in a variety of difficulties depending on the security level of the space where they are found.

* '''Ore sites''' contain [[Asteroids and Ore|asteroids]] to be mined for minerals or ice products; the ore often includes types not normally found in systems of that [[Security Rating|security rating]], i.e. anomalies in high sec may contain low sec ore etc.

* '''[[Ghost Site|Ghost Sites]]''' (also known as "Covert Research Facilities") contain 4 data/relic cans to hack, which explode if the explorer fails the hack. Also, an invisible timer (about 2 minutes) starts on the first warp-in to the site, and once it is up, indestructible NPC rats will warp in, cause all cans to explode and shoot at the explorer for a while. Tanked cruisers or larger ships, or "egg-thief" (hacking only one can quickly, then leaving) tactics are recommended. Either analyzer (and its relevant skill) may be used for the hack.
