Solar Wind Flux only exists within the Strangers World family of OXPs.

The solar flux emitted by a star can be collected as fuel if one's ship is equipped with Fuel Scoops. The concentration has to be at least 0.1ly/min. Different star types yield different emissions - and the emissions can vary over time.

Seeing the Solar Wind Flux concentration

The Solar Wind Flux concentration can be shown on the MFD made available by the Strangers World OXPs.

  • You need to (1) select the combined Planetary/Solar Data MFD (see MFD for details)
  • and (2) set it to the solar data MFD (by selecting the sun on your ASC).

Alternatively, you can see the value on the Useful MFDs first general MFD.
