Mission Rewards
Special Items
Some items that are used or gained from missions are put in the "Special" tab under the Trade menu. They are explained here:
Blueprints
They allow for special buildings or modules to be constructed. Known blueprints include Anti-Resistance Base, Exotic Turret, Exotic Barrier, and other Exotic structures/weapons.
Complex Tech Parts
Complex Tech Parts can be gathered by scrapping Artifacts that have been dropped by a NPC or have been collected from a mission. Here is a list of Artifacts that can be scrapped for CTP and their Value. This list is currently incomplete, so add to it if you get it.

Complex Tech Parts can currently be used in the following mission(s). They each provide you with access to unique artifact modules.
Exotic Matter
Exotic Matter is a rare substance which can occasionally (in actuality, considering the size of most mineral shipments, pretty frequently) be obtained through typical mineral shipments. It is used in missions, similar to energy, but otherwise has no functional purpose. This is a fairly useless material at lower levels. Most useful if given a friend (assuming the player is not in immediate need of the materials), unless you have started working on the very high level missions.
It is suggested that the odds of getting exotic matter in mineral shipments rise considerably when the player is at or above a certain rank (rank 85 and higher?)
NOTE: Certain extremely high level missions unlock blueprints to weapons, defenses, and resource production structures that are created via the use of Exotic Matter. For example, 400 Exotic Matter, when used with the corresponding blueprint, can build an Exotic Turret, which gives 85 towards a planet's attack stats. This actually makes exotic matter an incredibly useful commodity at the high levels, especially with the heavy Exotic Matter requirements that some missions have.
Political Favor
Unlike Exotic Matter, which only really comes into its element in the higher levels, Political Favor is incredibly important very early on, continuing throughout the game because the Fourth Tier upgrade is the Soldier Outpost, a very important building which can make or break the defense of a planet. Many people burn through Political Favor quickly and place Soldier Outposts frequently.
You can get political favour from completing certain missions. Look for missions that have a reward that looks like a yellow crown.
Prejoran Tech
Technology belonging to an ancient race known as the Prejor. Required for building special modules related to, or of, Prejor origin. Obtained from Prejor related missions.
XTS-9
XTS-9 is an extremely toxic substance that is used in experimental industrial production. There are various high-rank missions that require XTS-9. Producing it is dangerous.
Zolazin Debris
Debris collected from battles with Zolazin ships. Required for missions involving the Zolazin.
Tier Items
Mission tier items are gained through the FULL ending of the required number of missions. Note that what mission is ended does not matter, only the total number ended.
Also note that these are missions ended, not completed. Most missions require more than one completion before they end forever. In other words, you have to do a mission until it goes away (being replaced by another mission counts) before it is considered to have been "ended".
Unless otherwise specified, all mission tier items require NO space on a ship.
