What You Need. You will need a Pulse Wave Scanner, a Detailed Surface Scanner (DSS), an Abrasion Blaster, a Seismic Charge Launcher, a Refinery, Collector and Prospector Limpet Controllers (both of these should be A-rated, especially the prospector) and Cargo Racks. Make sure you still have a shield!
How do you find asteroids with fissures?
A really good way to find fissures is to pop a prospector limpet into a promising looking asteroid and all of the fissures (if any) will be marked. Then you can examine them up close to familiarize yourself with what to look for.
How do you find the void Opal asteroid?

How can I identify asteroids for Deep Space?
If you use look-around while scanning then be aware that an asteroid to your left or right might not be as bright in color until you swing around to point at it. Meaning; if it is the right shape but not as bright as you like, it may still be worth changing course and investigating it.
Is there an asteroid that has a core?
There is an asteroid next to it on the right with some surface deposits, but no core. At this distance, such asteroids do not show up on the pulse wave analyser at all, making it easy to spot the rocks with cores. Here is a view from much closer in: Now we can see how the asteroid with the core has a very bright gold colour.
Is there a way to crack an asteroid?
There is likely only one asteroid cracking animation per material type. So only one asteroid shape can be cracked. By the way there are 6 shapes per type in total. Another fun way to find some is dropping into belt clusters and checking if one of the asteroids rotates.
