MINING
BLAST DRONE
Launches an automated mining Drone that targets a single asteroid. After it completes mining a small amount of Hydrogen from its target, the Drone will head towards the closest enemy ship at increasing speed. Once it reaches the ship, or destroyed by enemy fire, the Drone will deliver Area Damage to all enemy objects in range. If the Drone is destroyed before it finishes mining, or unable to get the required Hydrogen amount from the target Asteroid, it will be destroyed without doing any damage. You can launch multiple Drones before this module's cooldown timer activates.

Blueprints are collected, not spent: the number is how many you need to have. Credits and research time are paid at each level; Total adds them up to that level.
