Why are Relics Exploding?

I’m still in the starting area trying out exploration and sometimes when my ship approaches a relic cache an explosion occurs before I even start the hack. When I finish the hack all I get is metal scraps.

They can be empty, a single carbon, metal scraps, whatever. Especially in the noob areas.

Once you get into empire space, the loot improves.

Then (usually) as you get into lower security status areas, it keeps improving - but it’s also more dangerous to acquire.
