Project CHEER Recovery Mission
- For the 2020 LTE, see Project CHEER Delivery LTE.
The Project CHEER Recovery Mission was the first LTE in Astroneer. It was added with the Holiday Update, and was accessible through the 
EXO Request Platform. It ran from December 16, 2019 to January 21, 2020, and the main objective was to benefit the Seattle Children's Hospital, through Extra Life.
Mission Contribution and Goals
Players could contribute to the Project CHEER Recovery Mission by collecting the special mission items found on 
Sylva, 
Desolo, 
Calidor, and 
Glacio. These items were scattered around the surface and underground caverns on these planets.
Once found, players had to package the items using the 
Packager, which allowed them to be placed on the EXO Request Platform. Each package was a different colored package, based on the number of Recovery Points yielded.
| Item | Package Color | Recovery Points* |
|---|---|---|
 Automaton 001
|
Bronze | 5 |
| Automaton 002
|
Bronze | 5 |
| Cubic Object
|
Silver | 15 |
| Stellar Object
|
Gold | 60 |
*Points were doubled in the last week of the mission.
The goal of the mission was to find the various items scattered around planets and found near EXO Delivery Crate wrecks in bigger groups, and trade them in with the EXO Request Platform for 500 Byte per payload. Players could obtain various rewards when they reach certain personal goals, or when the community reached a community goal.
| Reward | Points To Unlock |
|---|---|
| Frosty Palette | 400 Recovery Points |
| Frosty Visor | 2,500 Recovery Points |
| Frosty Mask | 2,500 Recovery Points |
| Holiday Top Hat | 100,000,000 Community Recovery Points |

For every 50 million points that players submit through the EXO Request Platform, SES donated $5,000, up to a total of $20,000. While the mission is over, players can still contribute to the charity through the rest of 2020.
