Gear for Mercury
What it takes to live on Mercury: the thermal suit, and the molten metal of its pools.
In the game
How to get it
Make the thermal suit; take molten metal from a pool on the day side (a bucket) or its crust at night.
What it is for
The suit holds the day and the night far longer; the metal is the thermal crucible's.
Why it exists
The Sun is three times closer.
