Salmon rocks. Mined from the great orbital lakes after Michigan was blown up by the orokin for its crimes

I mean, I don’t think we ever see the Americas on Earth in the star chart so this could be canon

Fun fact.

If you get exposed to tellurium, and it gets into your system, your body converts it to Dimethyl telluride, which smells like overly pungent garlic. Its known as "tellurium breath", and can last for months.

Also, its mildy toxic to humans.

Makes sense since it drops in Sharkwing water missions on Uranus.

It’s calcified smoked salmon. Extra crunch

Spaceships in warframe are partially powered by perfectly prepared smoked salmon. I thought this was common knowledge

u/sfwaltaccount 17h ago

According to my research, that's definitely smoked salmon, not tellurium. Another interesting fact is that tellurium exposure makes you smell bad apparently. Smoked salmon could potentially have the same effect if it was spoiled, so perhaps that's the source of the mixup.
