Deimos

Deimos

Deimos is the smaller and outermost of Mars' two moons. Like Phobos, it is believed to be a captured asteroid due to its irregular shape and composition. The game features 1 habitation site on Deimos.

Mining Sites

Notes:

• Negative values are not a bug, the game actually sets the median to a negative value to make it incredibly unlikely for the site to have a positive mine output. But note that the actual mined amount cannot actually be negative.
• Blank values indicate that the site can never produce this resource. In contrast, 0 indicates that there is still up to 50% chance for the site to produce the resource.
• Values shown do not take into account the final capping of the Noble Metals output to just 1/2 or 1/3 of the Base Metals output.
• Top 50% Mean is the average value of the top 50% of possible rolls. It is also a much looser estimate than the median because it cannot handle edge cases such as where the mininum value is too close to the median value.

Strategic Value

Deimos provides a stable platform for observing Mars and an additional mining opportunity in the Martian system.
