So how do i pick this damn thing up?
it constantly pushes you away, its too big to fit in the cargo hold and you cant pick it up with the manipulator.
So how the hell do i get it?!

guys?

You can jam it in your mouth and carry it back in your jaws.

it drains the reactor core if you do that

If it does Bad Things (TM) to you by being near you, do you really think Enceladus Prime, a massive, heavily populated space station, wants it anywhere NEAR itself?

Enceladus Prime wants it very badly. They'll pay you 1,000,000 E$ to bring it to them. As for how, the arm grabbed it just fine for me, but it's very heavy, rapidly fries your flight computer, and seems to magically slow itself down, so it's rather difficult cargo.

Yeah, just use your arm and have infinite patience babying your ship into a position for a jump. The cores really aren't dangerous, just a PITA.

lol rip just found one and I have no arm, I love the little encounters like this in the game
I did try and put it in my mouth and got the achievement, I mean this whole game is about trying to put things in your mouth

I managed to bring it back like that, stuff it in your mouth and fly it back to station. Probably helps if you use the EMP shielded ship like I did so it wont mess with your systems too badly.

I just found it again, it does fit in the Elon ship, but I can't seem to get home with it because it's frying my computer

I think you could fly it back by either exiting the ring on either end(left/right) but depending on how deep you are that might not really be an option but you might also be able to fly back to station by exceeding the speed limit so the auto-pilot activates and brings you back to the station.

Again not sure on either of those and the only one that might be realistic to do is flying fast so the auto-pilot kicks in.. but doing that while being hit by EMP is probably suicidal.

I dont remember the name of the ship but its a 'cargo' ship, it has EMP shielding so after grabbing hold of it with the excavator/cargo door you can set course for the station like usual, without it frying your computer.

The way I did it was by flying out the left side of the rings.

[Prawn]

Yeah I was pretty deep, just gave up lol
