Atmo Miner

A tiny ship I threw together in a couple of hours, because I needed a mining ship that could function on a planet.

This ship is fitted purely with atmospheric thrusters, making it useless in space. It is very compact, with only a single cargo container, due to me slapping it together in a hurry, but this small size and light weight also makes it very quick when empty. Like my other mining ships, it is lightly armed with a pair of gatling guns (no turret, though, this time), and is fitted with light shields* to protect against collisions while mining.

Due to the small size of the ship, it can fit inside the hangar bays of the Icarus (pointless, since the Icarus can't function on a planet), or the launch bays on either side of the Odyssey MK3.

*Note: The shields were not part of the original design this time, but were added after an incident involving an exploding connector while using the ship to mine ice. After having to use another ship to pick it up out of a hole it dug and make repairs, they were added to ensure I wouldn't have to do it again right away.
