Category:Cosmic Anomalies

This category only includes sites in known space. For sites found in wormholes that do not need to be scanned down, see Category:Wormhole sites.

Cosmic Anomalies are exploration sites found in all areas of space. Cosmic Anomalies require no special skills to find, as they will always appear as warpable locations in your ship's system scanner. Their difficulty varies widely, so pilots of all skill levels can find an appropriate challenge.

Cosmic Anomalies come in three forms: combat sites, ore sites, and ice belts. Combat sites contain multiple NPC rats to be killed with a combat ship, ore sites contain asteroids to be mined for minerals, and ice belts contain ice products.
