Alien artifacts can only be obtained by destroying enemy spawners. They are needed for some very powerful hightech equipment, but mainly for production of [[Alien science pack]]s.
As of 0.15, alien artifacts and alien science packs were removed from the game. This makes destroying [[Enemies#Spawners|alien spawners]] only beneficial for clearing out land, preventing attacks and/or just presenting an extra challenge to the game.
Artifacts can be collected by holding the "Pick up items" key (default F) and moving over them.

As of 0.15, alien artifacts and alien science packs were removed from the game. This makes destroying alien spawners only beneficial for clearing out land, preventing attacks and/or just presenting an extra challenge to the game.

Alien artifacts (also known as “Alien eggs”) could only be obtained by destroying alien spawners. They were needed for some very powerful high-tech equipment, but mainly for production of Alien science packs. Unlike other items dropped on the ground, it was not necessary to use the “Pick up items” key to pick up artifacts—simply walking over them was enough. Like other items, they could also be picked up by ordering Construction robots to “deconstruct” them.

Alien artifacts would become more and more challenging to obtain, as the more enemies were killed, the more the remaining enemies would evolve stronger.
