Isotope elements are one of the five divisions of the periodic table in No Man's Sky
Summary[ | ]
Isotope elements are commonly used to fuel or recharge various technologies in No Man's Sky. These technologies include: ships, weapons, personal shields, mining equipment, and especially hyperdrives.
When not being used as a fuel source, they can be combined with other elements for crafting.
All elements in the Isotope family have an icon with a red background when shown in the player's inventory, or on the No Man's Sky periodic table.
When a scan is taken of an area, locations with Isotope elements are tagged with a red diamond-shaped icon with a white lightning bolt in the centre (view sample).

Isotope elements are found in a wide range of locations from Carbon in trees, plants, and other vegetation, to Thamium9 on asteroids.
