Starfield Moon Jumper: How to Get It, Complete Guide
In brief
The Moon Hopper is an aerial vehicle specialized in high-altitude maneuvers across the varied landscapes of Starfield. This guide explains where to find it, particularly in abandoned broadcast stations, and how to obtain it during your space exploration.
In Starfield, the newly introduced Moon Jumper can be of great help to you. With its ability to gain altitude for better maneuvering across the highly varied aerial landscapes of planets and moons, it offers a unique experience to which we will dedicate this article.
The Moon Jumper, but what is it for?
The Moon Jumper is an aerial vehicle designed to fly over terrain across star systems. Unlike other aircraft such as the REV-8, it specializes in aerial maneuvers. Its thrust threshold is exceptionally high, and its propulsion lets you move quickly from one point to another.

Where to get the Moon Jumper
Acquiring the Moon Jumper requires a bit of patience, since it will happen along the course of your explorations. Bethesda included this vehicle as a random encounter, so there is no fixed spawn location, but there are still points of interest where it appears more frequently.
The Moon Jumper will mainly be found at abandoned broadcast stations, which look like small outposts with a large metal radio tower. Here are a few notable locations:
- Abandoned Broadcast Station: there's nothing better than this POI for finding the Moon Jumper. It appears on the map under a house-shaped icon.
- Hawking System: there's a good chance of finding the Moon Jumper on the planet Hawking I, in the conifer jungle area.
- Other systems: similar stations also exist on the Moon (Earth's satellite) or in the Sirius system.

How to access the Moon Jumper
Head to your ship to reach the abandoned broadcast station. Remember to check the map and the house-shaped icon. You may need to land several times in the same region before coming across the station. Once there, head to the open garage where the Moon Jumper is located.
Note
It may take numerous attempts to find the right spot: the surface map will let you zoom in to locate the broadcast station. Don't hesitate to visit other planets or moons, as the Moon Jumper could well appear in other systems.
