[b]The M-85 Atmospheric Miner is a simple and small planetary miner capable of digging its own tunnels.[/b][/code]
                                                                                                        
It is a very conservative design with 2 drills, 1 medium cargo container, 1 connector on the bottom and only atmospheric thrust. It is powered solely by batteries, which can be recharged while dumping off the ores.

It is set up with the [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1507646929&searchtext=path+auto+miner]Path Auto Miner[/url] script, which is incredibly convenient and easy to use, but totally optional. This ship works perfectly fine with scripts turned off.

If you build this in a survival world, I painted all blocks that you should grind down after building bright red for convenience.
