Indium is an extremely valuable resource in No Man's Sky. Problem is, you'll need to have an Indium Drive to get it, as it's hidden away in blue star systems. Worry not though, as we've collected everything you need to know in this guide on getting your very own Indium Drive. Let's get started.
How to Get an Indium Drive
You'll need to go to The Anomaly to pick up the blueprint for the Indium Drive. Summon The Anomaly by pressing down on the d-pad and then head inside. There's a ship upgrade vendor in the back room, who will sell you the Indium Drive blueprint in exchange for Nanites.
Crafting the Indium Drive
If you want to craft the Indium Drive you'll need the following materials:
- Emeril (250)
- Wiring Loom (5)
To get Emeril you'll need an Emeril Drive. Head to this guide for more info. To get Wiring Looms just head to a space station and interact with a galactic terminal.

Using the Indium Drive to Get Indium
To get Indium in No Man's Sky you'll need to warp to a blue star system. You can do so by opening your galactic map. Select a blue star and then select warp, you will need the Indium Drive.
