If all the tiles around you are already explored or you are constantly attacked, it is time to start over in a new location. Respawn allows you to start all over again in the beta galaxy. You'll start in a new area with potentially many empty tiles waiting to be explored by you. On respawn you will sacrifice the starter planet (alpha planet). You will get a new empty starter planet in a new location with new coordinates.

Mighty supernovae distributed stardust in space. When Planet Earth was formed more than four billion years ago, many elements came to Earth as Stardust. Stardust was a component of the dust in the interstellar medium before its incorporation into meteorites. The meteorites have stored those stardust grains. Everything we are, and everything in the universe, and on Earth originated from stardust, and it continually floats through us even today. It directly connects us to the universe, rebuilding our bodies over and again over our lifetimes.

Thanks to technological progress, Stardust can now be extracted from almost anything in space. The process is costly, and it is only possible to extract small amounts of stardust, but it is important for the interstellar community because it allows settlers and raiders an independent and transparent market. The new interstellar currency represents a significant step forward.

"There is now a realistic chance to finally strengthen poorer colonies with Stardust to ensure that every colony can operate independently in the future. This is another important step towards a free and justice interstellar society," says Gioquis Baljar, head of the interstellar financial supervision committee.

Not all colonies accept Stardust as their main currency. The manipulation of the banks over many decades, high fluctuation, and several collapses of the financial markets continue to create uncertainty. There is still a long way and numerous negotiations to go before we find broad acceptance.
