Starmetal

Starmetal is a unique, extraterrestrial mineral/natural alloy that comes from outer space. It is commonly found in asteroids, meteorites, and other rocky bodies found in space. It can be made artificially on Earth too however, so you don't have to rely on luck with meteors or farm up a mining ship.

Obtention
It can be found in meteors or mined with the Asteroid Mining Ship as crystals.

It is usually made in a Blast Furnace by combining Saturnite and Meteorite Powder however, since the former methods would be very difficult.

Properties
Not much is know about this natural alloy, but we do know that it is very strong and that it has unique properties and abilities. We can assume however, that it is obscenely heavy, dense, and hard, as expected with an alloy made of very heavy elements.

Studies have shown that this alloy creates a violent and radioactive reaction with moon-rock. This reaction is the main reason why Trottenheimer’s Folly is so powerful. The Starmetal-Moonrock reaction will release so much radiation that it can be lethal to the wielder of Trottenheimer’s Folly.

Uses
Starmetal is a very durable, yet reactive alloy that is used in many "exotic" recipes like the Schrabidium Clusters. It will also be used in Tom’s final stage. Its ability to generate electricity from static or radiation makes it useful in making static electricity generators for Tesla Coils and Radiation-Powered Engines that eat up waste.

Its high-density, weight, and unusual properties make it apparently useful in artillery shells to increase kinetic damage potential and coated bullets for armor piercing effects and that it can give a special form of heavy metal poisoning.

Trivia

 * Starmetal contains Uranium but it is not radioactive.
 * We could assume the immense density of the alloy and of the other heavy elements act as a self-radiation shielding strong enough to reduce it to a negligible level.
 * Starmetal is made of meteorite powder yet is very reactive with it. Someone with more knowledge in chemistry and related sciences could properly theorize why.
 * In its reference, Starmetal was made with moon-rock, since moon-rock would be very difficult to obtain (even with other mods), Meteorite was chosen as a suitable substitute, since they probably are made of the same materials and it can give hints as to its properties by knowing its constituent materials.
 * It has a little indent in the middle of its ingot form similar to Desh.
 * Its name in the game is colored a rich blue. This is not a "rarity" color.
 * It even appears blue when its name is displayed on the player hotbar.
