Starfield:Missions
In Starfield, players will be able to pursue and complete missions over the course of the game, ranging from main story missions to faction-related storylines to miscellaneous tasks.
The player's current active missions can be accessed through the Missions menu, accessed from the bottom of the radial menu. Here, they can review their current missions, choose which to actively pursue, and toggle whether the HUD shows location indicators for all missions or just the active one. Missions are divided into 5 categories, along with a final 'Completed' category for all completed missions.

Missions
The aptly-named Missions category encompasses all tasks that players can get from a Mission Board in major colonies or at their own Outposts if they build one. These are procedurally-generated, and range from making deliveries and hunting bounties to surveying planets and supplying resources to colonies.
Activities
Activities are simple one-action tasks that usually serve to point players in the direction of one of the other types of mission. They're usually picked up by overhearing conversations or announcements or in dialogue with NPCs.
