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 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.
