Can you catch monsters in Starbound? if so, how?

I've heard about how you can catch monsters but I haven't found out how .-. Can anyone help?

Solution 1:

Monsters can be captured by crafting a Creature Capture Station at tier 4, then using that to craft Capture Pods. These pods can be thrown at small, grounded creatures with less than 50% health to have a small change to capture them.

Solution 2:

This feature is not yet implemented at this stage of the beta.

6: Are Novakids in yet? Monster capture? Pets? Fossils?

Not yet! The beta is not feature-complete, but people sure seem to be having fun anyway. :)

EDIT: Patch Annoyed Koala 9/12/2013. Creature taming seems to still not be possible but patch notes show it is definitely on the way.

Added early implementation of creature taming (more features coming soon)
