Cartesian Temporal Coordinator - (ancient salvaged material) - 5,000 units

At first glance this coordinator appears to be a common enough piece of equipment, albeit an odd one to be found inside a drone. Designed to plot various points in time across a potentially infinite period, these devices are often used for scientific calculations. For some unknown reason, this particular coordinator is configured to synchronize its processing speed in time with the distance travelled between two points. What purpose this serves remains a mystery, but the object's basic functionality can be reconfigured. With the addition of a few other components, it would allow electronics systems to more easily withstand the interference from subspace distortion.

Central System Controller - (ancient salvaged material) - 1,000 units

Still fully intact and operational, this device stands as a testament to the ancient Sleeper's impressive scientific achievements. Although thousands of years old, the technology inside it is not only comparable to modern electronic designs, but in some cases even exceeds it. Central system controllers lie at the heart of a starship's electronics systems. They are responsible for coordinating the flow of information between various analyzers and control nodes, monitoring subsystems, and ensuring they receive the appropriate supply of electrical power. Tackling such complex tasks simultaneously (and with near-zero latency) demands immense processing power and faultless, error-free programming. Traditionally, a CSC would comprise a significant portion of the cost in a starship's electronics systems, but the fullerene-based Sleeper designs have provided breakthroughs in the efficiency of circuitry and presented new and improved methods for increasing computational accuracy. The end result is a drastically reduced cost for top-of-the-line performance.

Chiral Structures (processed planetary materials) - 250,000 units

A chiral structure is a crystal that is unsymmetrical, which makes it volatile in some situations but ideal for conductivity, especially in micro-circuitry. Using semi-rare chiral structures in electronics has allowed for an unprecedented advancement in the field of miniaturization.

Complex Organisms (raw planetary materials) - 10,000,000 units

Organic flora and fauna growing on worlds across the cluster technically qualify as “alien life,” though none of it has registered as sentient. However, their usefulness as comestibles or building materials in other areas of industry is invaluable.

Compressed Arkonor (ore) - 15,000 units

Arkonor is one of the rarest and most sought-after ores in the known universe. A sizable nugget of this can sweep anyone from rags to riches in no time. It has high amount of Megacyte, and also contains some Mexallon and Pyerite. This material is compressed and a much more compact form of the original material.

Compressed Azure Plagioclase (ore) - 1,500,000 units

Azure plagioclase was made infamous in the melancholic song prose Miner Blues by the Gallentean folk singer Jaroud Dertier three decades ago. Plagioclase is not amongst the most valuable ore types around, but it contains a large amount of pyerite and is thus always in constant demand. It also yields some tritanium and mexallon. This ore is a compressed and much more dense version of the original ore.
