Hydrogen
Material, Fuel
The most abundant element in the universe is the lightest gas.
Summary
Hydrogen, the simplest and most abundant element in the universe. It is used in the creation of multiple products or can be used directly as a fuel.
It can be harvested directly from Gas Giants and Ice Giants using Orbital Collectors, and produced as a byproduct of many different recipes.
It can be stored in Storage Tanks as it is considered a fluid.

Production Upgrades
Hydrogen production from Orbital Collectors is affected by the Veins Utilization chain of upgrades, with each level giving a flat +10% to production.
