You've been assigned to clear the asteroid belts between Mars and Saturn. The Corporation Regulating Advanced Propulsion (CRAP) is in need of additional testing grounds and have hired you, yes you, to clear the way. You must achieve your quota for each sector before you can move on to the next. Follow up crews will use Capped Rocket Utilizing Detonators (CRUDs) to destroy any remaining asteroids after you have hyperspaced into the next sector.

Your ship has been equipped to turn raw materials from asteroids into useful propellants and armor. Your on-board factory will generate all kinds of weapons for you to clear the belt with when you collect the raw materials.
