Scan for ground resources?

Back in the day, I could go into exploration zones, and often would get to beam down to a planet to do a mission. Doing so also allowed me to scan anomalies and gather crafting materials.

Now, we have these Endeavours, and today one is to gather materials on the ground.

But WHERE? There's nowhere to beam down, anymore. I went to Defera, to Nimbus 3, to my Dranuur colony, everywhere I could think of... nothing to scan.

So where am I supposed to go to scan for materials?

(I miss the old exploration missions, I actually got to hang with my crew from time to time, it was fun. I practically forget what they look like now.)

    Missions have ground materials too, you don't even have to complete the the mission for it to count.

    Sphere of Influence first beamdown has two. I keep that Mission for that Endeavor. One beamdown will handle Easy and Medium. Three beamdowns for Hard. Some people don't like to run into the Main Chamber so they just do the one right at the initial beam in point.

    That'll be me! Zero running required. Beam in, harvest, and abort mission. Repeat as required for the endeavour.

    I have that phavo mission saved at the ground part and just run past all the objectives and in the back with the terran shuttle there are 3 scans to get.

    My go to mission is Cold Comfort. 2 resource nodes with no combat. Easy to pop in, scan, pop out.
