Atomite

Atomite is a mysterious substance with varied affects on different stimuli, including prolonging health, and being a substitute for electric power. It jump-started the multi-dimensional corporation known as MaxCorp and is connected to a enigmatic race called the Ancients. It inspired the strange earthly cult known as The Order of The Velvet Albatross and is a main plot point of the entire MaxCorp Universe.

Biography
Atomite was discovered by Knox during the origins of MaxCorp, and is used by him to power the facility and prolong his life, fueling his search for immortality. It was discovered leaking from a strange alien craft constructed using a stone-like material, presumably used by the Ancients, and the main power source, and cooling and heating agent for the craft.

After Dr. H.S. Agnestein experimented with it, the Soldier Recycling Program and Project Copernicus were born, resulting in a technological boom for MaxCorp. Jacob Fisher also used Atomite to power the Knox-Bot designs.
