Oxygen is a resource.

Summary[ | ]

Oxygen (O2) is a resource and one of the fuel elements.

Game description[ | ]

Integral to the atmospheric filtering technology at the heart of the exosuit life support system.

Exosuit material processing allows oxygen to be harvested directly from appropriate planetary flora.

Other plantlife may be scanned with the Analysis Visor to reveal alternative oxygen supplies.

Source[ | ]

Can be harvested from red plants in the wild. (These red plants are what used to be Thamium9)
Can be found as a secondary element in some flora.
Can be found as a primary element in Underground Toxic Hazard.
Can always be bought from any Galactic Trade Terminal or from pilot NPCs on Space Stations (only on "Goods Availability->Abundant" setting).
Obtained from an Oxygen Harvester.
Obtained from an Atmosphere Harvester on exotic planets.
Using Gas Extractor at an Oxygen Concentrated Gas Cloud.

Oxygen can be refined using a Refiner with the following ingredients:

Kelp Sac ×1 → Oxygen ×1 ("Extract Micro-Bubbles", 0.24 sec./unit output)
Kelp Sac ×1 + Carbon ×1 → Oxygen ×2 ("Release Captured Oxygen", 0.36 sec./unit output)

Cooking[]

Oxygen is not used as an ingredient for cooking using a Nutrient Processor.

Additional information[ | ]

Other than not being a power source, Oxygen has largely replaced Thamium9 in game requirements.
Oxygen rich plants can be found in at least two kind of types. In larger groups or separate. Same as with Sodium rich plants.
