# Scanner Level 0
**Level 0 is the entry tier.** It costs **10 USDT (BEP20)**, once, and it's how you get into the field. It is a genuine, playable Scanner — you hunt with the same five signals a day as everyone else, you find real asteroids, and you earn real ASTRO you can withdraw.
It is also deliberately a **demo of the full game**. Level 0 shows you what hunting feels like; the fleet, the rare tiers and the uncapped earnings live from Level 1 up.
## What you get at Level 0
* **5 signals a day**, same as every other player at every other level.
* **One earning asteroid** at a time — your active slot.
* **Storage for up to 49 more** finds, held for you until you upgrade. See [Asteroid storage](/asteroid-shiba-docs/scanner-level-0/storage.md).
* **Research** on your active asteroid, to raise what it earns.
* **Withdrawals**, up to a lifetime total of $25. See [The Level 0 withdrawal limit](/asteroid-shiba-docs/scanner-level-0/limits.md).
## What you can find
Chance per signal at Level 0. Empty is the rest — **99.31%**.
| Rarity | Chance | What happens |
| ------------- | ------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Common** | 0.60% | Instant reward of 1,000 ASTRO. The first one takes your active slot and starts earning. |
| **Rare** | 0.07% | Goes to storage. No instant reward, no daily income until Level 1. |
| **Epic** | 0.02% | Goes to storage. No instant reward, no daily income until Level 1. |
| **Legendary** | — | Not findable at Level 0. |
| **Genesis** | 🔒 | Not findable at Level 0, and not in play yet at any level. |
Rare and Epic became findable at Level 0 so that the entry tier carries a real chance at something big — not just a slow trickle of Commons. What Level 0 doesn't do is let you *use* them yet.
## The active slot
Your active slot holds **one Common**, and only a Common can take it.
The **first Common you find** goes into the slot and starts mining ASTRO for you every day. Every find after that — including another Common — goes to [storage](/asteroid-shiba-docs/scanner-level-0/storage.md). Commons always pay their 1,000 ASTRO instant reward, whether they land in the slot or in storage.
## Moving up
Buying **Scanner Level 1** does three things at once: it opens the full rarity range on every future hunt, it lifts your fleet from 1 earning asteroid to 50, and it activates everything sitting in your storage. It also removes the $25 withdrawal limit.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://asteroid-shiba.gitbook.io/asteroid-shiba-docs/scanner-level-0/overview.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
