In the game
How to get it
Press it in the hyperbaric press: 2 hermesite ingots and 1 titanium ingot, 60 kW, 90 s, one alloy. Then put the tool, the weapon or the piece of armor and the alloy in the crafting grid, nothing else: the same item comes out with the alloy. A plain item holds one alloy (forging again replaces it); a raisonite item holds three.
What it is for
Armor: Runs 1.5 times as fast. Weapon: Pulls the foe toward you (about 4 m) instead of throwing it back. Tool: While you hold it, loose items within 6 m fly to you.
Why it exists
Each body pays the voyage in a power of its own; Mercury's is in this alloy.
The same text the game shows in its progress tree and on the item's sheet (I).

Why it exists
The planet alloys are the reason to visit every world: a 13-year-old can forge them, an engineer combines three on a raisonite item.
