Required Materials, Equipment, and Access

Obtaining Progenitor Cells Progenitor Cells are a Medicine commodity normally produced by High Tech economies.

They can be purchased through ordinary commodity markets, so you do not need to mine, salvage, or collect them as Engineering materials.

Petra requires 200 units in total.

Tip

Because Petra is in Colonia, buy the Progenitor Cells from a current market in or near the Colonia region rather than transporting 200 tonnes all the way from the Bubble.

Market supply changes over time, so use current market information when choosing where to purchase them rather than relying on a permanently listed station.

Player-owned Fleet Carriers may also sell Progenitor Cells when another Commander has placed them on the carrier market. Carrier stock and prices are player-controlled and can change.

See Progenitor Cells for current acquisition methods.

Field note

Current Engineer data notes that station services may not become available immediately after Petra is unlocked. If the workshop or other expected services do not appear after completing the unlock, logging out and back in may make them available.
