No Man's Sky: 10 Coolest Things You Must Do
3. Get Rich Quick With Creature Eggs
If you find yourself on a planet surrounded by larger creatures and with more than a few caves nearby, it's time to get very excited. These planets present you with a unique opportunity to get very rich very quickly, but there is an element of danger involved as well.
Larger creatures have been found to leave eggs in egg sacs in the relative safety of the planet's caves, but they obviously didn't count on a cheeky little opportunist falling from the stars and harvesting their home's resources. Many of these creature eggs sacs will contain rare pearls which can be sold for around 30,000 units each at the Global Trade terminals.
Obviously, the planet's sentinels won't be particularly fond of you doing this, and will attack pretty quickly. Once you find a cave with plenty of the egg clusters in it, grab your ship and park it nearby so you can dash in for a few quick grabs before retreating to safety each time.
Then, when your inventory is stacked with these pearls, head off and sell them as quick as you can!
