There are 60 lore collectibles in Trek to Yomi that add bits of lore to the overall world. None of the artifacts unlock anything else in-game. However, finding them all will give you the Leave No Stone Unturned trophy on PlayStation and achievement on Xbox and PC. Some story/location spoilers follow.
