The nine ingots

One ingot of each body of the Solar System, each got its own way: mined, shorn, skimmed, struck by lightning, swept, rained, erupted, guarded.

How to get it

Each body's raw material melts into its ingot in the Furnace. The ways differ: mining (the Moon, Mars), creatures (Venus's jellyfish, Mars's drones, Europa's leviathan, Miranda's mammoths, Pluto's guardians), machines (Mercury's crucible, the probe at Jupiter, the collector at Saturn), events (Miranda's diamond rain, Triton's geysers).

What it is for

The raisonite synthesizer takes one of each; two of a body's ingots press into its alloy; the solar altar wants one of each.

Why it exists

Quality over quantity: every world has one obvious thing to bring back, and every way of playing gets its turn.

The same text the game shows in its progress tree and on the item's sheet (I).
