Subzero Distress Planet

Planet Description
This is a subzero planet with a distress signal. The landscape is that of a crater with two structures, an outpost and old base. Surrounding the old base are landmines, which do not respawn when detonated. Inside the old base, are slimes.

Mission
Hems gives the quest “Retrieve Thermal Regulator”. His heating unit has failed, and the only replaceable part is inside the old base. Simply avoid all the landmines, go into the slime infested old base, and return to Hems with the regulator. The reward is 7,000 credits and 5 Xp. After completing the mission distress beacon on the star map will disappear.

Lore
This facility seems to be a private operation run by Hems. Him using “my base”, “my Storage”, and “my operation” supports this. However, he mentioned working with a team to set up landmines. We can speculate that this team had something to do with the security system failing. Perhaps, by the process of elimination he took over the operation.

Another possibility is that the security system was meant to keep the slimes at bay failed, leading to an infestation. Although, the vague language Hems is using makes it seem that by then the team was already 'gone'.
