The Starfield First Contact mission has you dealing with two disparate groups: one aboard a ship and the other lounging around in a resort. What makes this side quest quite interesting is that there are three ways to complete it, with varying results. Our Starfield First Contact guide discusses what all of these decisions entail.

How to complete the First Contact mission in Starfield

The Starfield First Contact mission begins in orbit over Porrima II in the Porrima system. Upon arriving, you'll hear a distress call from the surface. At the same time, an unidentified ship will hail you, and you can go ahead and dock. Inside, you'll meet the captain, Diana.

It seems that the people here are all colonists that have fled Earth hundreds of years prior. Technical issues meant that generations continued to live inside the ship, oblivious to the events that have transpired in the wider galaxy. They've also had problems when trying to communicate with others, including the planet of Porrima II, which they consider their rightful home. Unfortunately, it's now owned by a corporation that plans to make a planet-wide resort.
