Most of Starfield’s major factions have quest lines that have players joining the faction to complete all their associated quests. While these major quest lines hold to more story-focused missions, there are still hundreds of smaller quests to be found throughout the galaxy with smaller stories to be told.
One of these smaller quests revolves around the ship ESC Constant, which will appear in orbit of the resort planet Paradiso. The ship will stay there until their quest is complete, and completing their quest will have them moving to another planet’s orbit.

Where To Find The ECS Constant
The ESC Constant will first appear in orbit over the resort Paradiso on the planet Porrima II in the Porrima galaxy. The ship will at first be unidentified, and traveling to Paradiso and working with the planet’s security team will begin the “First Contact” mission. While there are a few ways to complete this mission, the most humane way is to have the inhabitants of the ESC Constant either reside on Paradiso or give them a new Grav Drive.
If given a new Grav Drive, the ESC Constant can and will travel the galaxy freely. After the First Contact quest is completed, a new activity called “Location Of The ECS Constant” appears in the activities menu. While the ship may not move right away, its location is now randomized after it does leave, and this activity is needed to track its current location.
Why Find The ECS Constant
The ECS Constant is an old Earth ship that used outdated travel technology to be lost for almost 300 years. This ship is a great place to find and buy old Earth items and weapons, along with there still being a few additional side quests to be completed for the residents on board the ship. Old Earth items have a very high value rate to the right merchant, making the rewards for these side quests and the items on board very valuable.
