Solar System (NTM: Space)
The Solar System in NTM: Space is based on the Kerbol System from the popular rocket building and space travel game Kerbal Space Program. The planets within are analogs of those in our own Solar System, asking various "what-if"s about the planets we know and love to make for a more interesting and varied experience than the planets as we know could provide.
You can travel between bodies in the solar system using either a rocket built in a VAB, or an orbital station.
Tier 0
- All the bodies in this tier can be accessed without a improved drive processor chip installed into a drive processor, and are therefore accessible immediately once cracked oil processing is achieved.
Earth
The starting point of almost all Minecraft playthroughs, the Earth is full of places to explore, and structures to loot for a boost in the early game. In terms of renewable resources, it can hardly be beat for carbon based products, such as plant and animal life, frackable bedrock oil deposits, and coal. However, on the renewable minerals front, bedrock ore on the planet is limited, but it does fortunately have the basics for setting up an industrial factory.
Bedrock packed ice is unavailable, but water is abundant, and the water table allows for infinite water barrels to function.

Mun
Scientific advancements lead the player here, one of Earth's natural satellites, abundant in lithium, quartz, and most importantly, the first source of 
nickel to start producing 
stainless steel for space-grade machinery. The Mun is the first atmosphere-less body available in a regular playthrough, and is necessary to visit for making the first tier of drive processors in the vacuum solderer. Cows with breathing headgear can be found here, inspired by the moonwalking cows from an April Fools update.

Minmus
The second Earth's natural satellite, Minmus is characterized for being smaller than the Mun and having a mint-chocolate-chip colored landscape, opposed to Mun's surface. Pumps function here, but instead of producing water, this moon bizarrely produces milk, allowing for full automation of butter, milkshakes and ice-cream.

Tier 1
- To access these celestial bodies, a vacuum solderer must be used to craft the first tier of drive processor upgrade, which must be done in a vacuum. Both the Mun and Minmus have no atmospheres, which means this can be done on either body to proceed.
Duna
The red planet, home to vast quantities of iron. Molysite and volcano gems can be found here in basaltic caves, found within basins where vast oceans were theorized to once exist. A new world can be started from this location if world type The Martian is selected when generating.

Ike
Ike is Duna's only natural satellite, and significant hazardous waste underground hints it was used as a waste dump planet, with large spires and pyramids reminiscent of potential designs on Earth for warning future civilizations of great danger in relation to nuclear waste. Meteor dungeons spawn more frequently here, and pools of alkyl bromide can be found on the surface. Ike is one of only two locations where mineral dust can be extracted.

Moho
A fair-dinkum planet, hot as hell, and full of rare resources generally only found in the Nether. Australium is only found here, in vast quantities deep under the surface. Some of the largest caves ever generated within Minecraft can be found here, perfect for an evil lair. Moho is the other available option for extracting mineral dust, for producing your first gallium.
This planet is too close to the sun to provide any sources of water, it must be transported by rockets.

Tier 2
- To travel to these celestial bodies, further progress must be made with the drive processor upgrades, utilizing gallium - which can be procured by processing rich mineral deposits found on Ike and Moho, and arsenic - which is found on Ike in bedrock ore, or on Earth via dirt and stone that has been damaged by hydraulic fracking.
Dres
This planet has some of the most prized resources in the whole system, with even the primary fraction of bedrock ore consisting of incredibly valuable metals and materials. Niobium, coltan, and lanthanium are abundant in here.

Eve
Eve is one of the most unforgiving planets on the system, while it is possible to travel here with only a tier 2 drive processor to exploit the incredibly powerful schrabidic resources that exist here, players will not last long without the appropriate armor inserts, due to the highly corrosive atmosphere melting any armor it comes in contact with. These armor inserts must be crafted with combine steel and neon gas, found in the atmosphere of Jool.
The planet's atmosphere is too thick to support water ice, meaning water must be transported in.

Tier 3
- In order to travel to Laythe and Tekto, you will need to procure the rare light metal hafnium to produce the requisite chips, which at this stage in progression can only be obtained by centrifuging niobium crystals, which must be created from niobium ore, only found on Dres and Eve.
Laythe
Laythe is a beautiful water world, teeming with life, oceans lit up with fields of glowgrass, and dotted with sunken submarines from previous explorers who attempted to exploit the natural resources found here. Seems that the place doesn't like intruders. Jool air can be harvested from here using a gas giant harvester.
Bedrock packed ice is unavailable, but water is abundant, and the water table allows for infinite water barrels to function.

Tekto
Tekto is a strange world... Similar to Earth, where life is different because the vegetation, the only form of life there, is made of complex polymers, like rubber and plastic.
Bedrock ore in Tekto doesn’t have the non-metal variant; instead, it is replaced by the plastic variant, from which the player can obtain polymer, rubber, semtex and PVC.
