Molten Megafauna

The anomalous tectonic scans on … have been attributed to the presence of large herds of roaming silicon-based megafauna. Migrating across great distances, these enormous creatures periodically submerge in the planet's lava lakes to gather their preferred food source: a rocky sediment rich in Volatile Motes. By tracking their migratory patterns, we will be able to extract these sediments for our own needs with minimal impact to the planet's ecosystem. Their thick outer carapaces are able to withstand extreme temperatures; a deeper, more detailed study of their life cycle could yield fascinating results.

The command below will trigger the "Molten Megafauna" event in Stellaris:

When this event fires, you can choose between the following option:

• Excellent.
  • Add deposit: +6
  • Add deposit: +3
  • Start special project: Lava Divers

Stellaris events fire in chains — one event leads to the next. Here is how Molten Megafauna (extreme_frontiers.370) connects.
