The '''Wasp''' is | The '''Wasp''' is the smallest [[:Category:Miner|Miner]]-class ship, which is given to all new players in Galaxy. Compared to other [[:Category:Miner|Miners]], it is lacking in terms of mining speed and ore hold, and has a small mining range of 4000 studs. The '''Wasp''' is also used for distracting base [[Turrets]] because it has a high top speed and players are not afraid to lose it. '''Wasps''' cost nothing and can be rebuilt immediately upon destruction, meaning players will always have a new one in their inventory. | ||
