	Remember that your ML-16s need very little energy. Divert all but one tick power from your primary recharge to your engines, and I suggest the Valkyrie. The faster you are the more quickly you can get from one side of the ''Galatea'' to the other, should the situation require it.		Remember that your ML-16s need very little energy.

			If you were not able to visually identify any of the Shivan ships in the last mission, the Galatea starts out with 83% in this mission.

	Near the end of the mission, two Shivan bombers (Shaitan) will attack. Alpha 2 will engage them so just keep destroying asteroids. It's not ''that'' difficult to kill them, so on the lower difficulty levels you may want to take the bombers out. Make sure that you are not in front of the ''Galatea'' when she jumps out once reaching the node, or you will be killed in the collision.

	This is a very easy mission on medium, but not on the higher difficulties, if you're trying to get the secondary objective of keeping the Galatea above 50 percent. Fly around destroying the asteroids with white targeting brackets around them. Your MX-~~50's~~ are useless in this mission, because the MX-50 missiles do not home in on asteroids. Hence Furies are the only viable option as secondary weapon.

	The main mistake you might make is to sit there pounding an asteroid with lasers and rockets until it blows up. This is a waste of time and ammunition. Fire 4 Furies at each asteroid while shooting your primaries at it, then move on to the next target. It takes a whole second or so for the rockets to reach their target, so don't sit there watching them. Saving time is crucial on Insane.

	If you think that your job of destroying asteroids is not important, order Alpha 2 to depart and don't do anything.
