so, except for roid detection, the sensors do not need to be better than 1
hex active or passive for that pop gun.
please correct me, but i do not recall if the hector (frankenstein ) had a
neutrino sensor or a densitometer in it.
i ask because wouldn't a densitometer make roid classification a huge bit
easier? seeing a rock is one thing, knowing it's relative density by
apparent size would make a huge difference in pass it over or holy crap we
gotta stop and analyse this little bugger. a neutrino sensor 'might' be
useful in looking specifically for radiation emissions that are more common
to heavy rare earth elements. one thing i can't rem in cannon, while
lanthanum is classified as a rare element and key to the manufacture of jump
drives, no other handwavium i can recall gives any specifics on it as an
element per se, like placement on the periodic, is it radioactive, is it
like aluminum in that in it's natural form it is called bauxite and needs
to be processed in to a useable state (lanthanum) etc.
can anyone point me to some info?

The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to
think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane.
