A Big Lidar Contact is a form of [[astrogation]] target where the position of it is known, but the identity is not. LIDAR contacts are typically large structures, being either a [[moonlet]] formation or a [[habitat]], left to be determined by your discovery.

==Obtaining==
A big lidar contact can be found randomly by your crew, when they notice something odd on their instruments, or from requesting trade opportunities from a [[Miner|civilian miner]].
==Locations==
A lidar contact can lead to a multitude of locations, with certain finds being determined by how the coordinates were obtained. The following table provides a list of how they're found:

|"Hey, captain. Just before we left, I saw a post on RingChan that someone got a big LIDAR hit in this area. We might be the first ones in a position to check it out since the post went up. It might be a good idea to check it out. Who knows what we might find?"

===Notes===
*Some miners will know the wherabouts of a specific trade location when asking, however is limited to SRA-03 through SRA-06
*All named locations (Obonto Habitats, Phage Stations, The Space Bar, Ganymedean Anarchy Station) cannot have their respective numbered locations (exc. Space Bar & Ganymedean Anarchy Station) found.
*Destination finds all have the same chance of appearing from their respective sources, except for Uranium Caves from miner interactions, which have double the likelihood of being given a location for.
*The find is set in stone once the coordinates have been recorded.
**This can be taken advantage of by returning to [[Enceladus Prime]] without heading to the anomaly to save, going out to discover the object, and reloading if a different loadout would be preferred.
*SRA-02 is the only [[Habitat]] that has to be found through random chance.
