Development

2019-11-23	The MOLE was first revealed to StarCitizen:CitizenCon 2019 attendees during the "Ship Talk" panel in the Croshaw Auditorium. This panel wasn't streamed live but made available to everyone later on YouTube. At this stage, the Mole was already fairly far into production state, because StarCitizen:Cloud Imperium announced that it would be made available for Alpha 3.8.0, due later that year.
2019-11-27	During the StarCitizen:Intergalactic Aerospace Expo a few days after CitizenCon 2019, the Mole was also featured in a StarCitizen:Whitley's Guide episode. Here, presenter StarCitizen:Jax McCleary gained exclusive access to the Mole.<ref>IAE 2949: MISC, ARGO</ref>

Trivia

• Carbon is a chemical element represented by the symbol C, has an atomic number of 6 and is located in group 14 of the periodic table. It is classified as a nonmetal and is tetravalent, indicating that its atoms can create up to four covalent bonds because its valence shell contains 4 electrons. Despite being widely found in nature, carbon is not especially abundant, constituting only approximately 0.025 percent of the Earth's crust. Nevertheless, it is capable of forming more compounds than all other elements combined. <ref>Wikipedia: Carbon</ref>
