| Mining, which had previously involved obtaining needed minerals and metals from near the planet's surface, made rapid advancements to enable mining of staple ores such as Fe and Mg possible from the core of the planet. Though the risks are high, this solved the problem of the lack of minerals on the planet's barren surface. However, the tragedy of 0-sider planet, which had disappeared due to the extensive mining of its core, was a sad reminder that too much greed leads to self-destruction. | |||
