StarCitizen:MOLE

The MOLE (Multi Operator Laser Extractor) is a medium-sized multi-crew StarCitizen:mining StarCitizen:ship developed by StarCitizen:Argo Astronautics. Equipped with three independent mining turrets and extensive crew facilities, this vessel is ideally suited for effective multi-crew mining operations. Furthermore, a substantial collection of twenty four 12SCU mineral pods guarantees that no valuable resources will be overlooked. The MOLE embodies the principle that "Many hands make light work".<ref name="MOLELaunch">Template:Cite RSI</ref>

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>
2019-12-21	The ship was made playable for Alpha 3.8.0.<ref>Template:Cite RSI</ref>

Trivia

• Moles encompass numerous species of small, subterranean creatures that inhabit various regions across the globe. Renowned for their exceptional tunneling abilities, moles are diminutive predators that construct intricate systems of tunnels and pathways through leaf litter, plant life, and soil.<ref>Wikipedia: Mole(animal)</ref>
