At the start of a normal game, you have only an empty vessel in a system with [[trade]] and [[Contract|story contracts]], but no [[shipyard]]. The exceptions are the [[The Praxis]], which starts with some materials, and Shipyard, which starts the game in a system with a shipyard. A few [[crew member]]s in [[spacesuit]]s arrive via [[Cargo Shuttle]] in the first few moments of the game, and it is up to the player to turn this vessel into a functioning ship.
