When a Resource Module is ready for launch, this is the card that will send the module on its way. When a Mission Director completes a Power Module with this card, they will take the completed unit off the factory floor. During a round, players will need to complete 1 Resource Module.

“This module is the future of colonizing Mars. The building blocks of our Martian history will be created by this module.”

Thermal capture is an experimental power source that will be hooked up with the Solar Module.

“I know this new Thermal Tech is risky, but its so cool! Thermal Monitors have been mounted to the Solar Flare rig & waiting to be deployed. First reading should be coming in tomorrow morning.”

The Particle Separation unit will be used in two major ways, cleaning the perchlorates from the martian soil and cleaning water supplies.

“Perchlorate wash & separation cycle is running. Waste separation set to auto run tonight.”

There are dangers to living on the Red Planet and one of the scariest is the threat of fire. The Resource module has an attachment built in that will take the argon out of the atmosphere. Argon will be used to fight fires in the different modules and other areas with oxygenated zones. Thinking on a long term scale, argon will be needed as an insulating gas for building projects that require welding.

“Checked the Argon readings this morning. Fire Fighting levels are good, construction levels 10% below production targets. Will need to check this out during free time tomorrow.”

Has the colonists get to mining the natural resources of the Red Planet, there will be fluids they can extract from different sources. There will be water rich rocks, underground fluids to pump to the surface. These fluids will need to be purified but before they can be purified, they need to be extracted from their source.

“Water rich ore has been loaded, centrifuge is starting the heating cycle. We have 2 hours to prep for the ground fluid purification process.”

In the early stages of the colony, available technology will run on carbon based fuels. The resource module teams will start looking for these natural resources to get the colonization of Mars moving at full speed.

“We found our first carbon fuel supplies today. The rover has been programmed to map for the most level section to build the storage tanks. While the drill crew get the storage silos to the site, I am running the oxidation calculations.”

When the Colonists get all set up on the Red Planet, they are going to start looking towards the future. That means the collection of resources starting with looking for and mining different ores. The resources taken from these ore stocks will make up the materials that will help expand from colonies to martian cities. The Resource Module is a very robust unit and the colony only needs one as part of a complete colony.

“We hit a seam of Iron ore today, running tests on on samples from excavation sites 1, 5 &6.”

When a Science Module is ready for launch, this is the card that will send the module on its way. When a Mission Director completes a Science Module with this card, they will take the completed unit off the factory floor. During a round, players will need to complete 2 different science modules.

“The red of the Red Planet can now be seen with the naked eye. Time to prepare the observatory for orbital deployment.”

Since the colonists will be so busy working in and around the rest of the colony, the Science Module has been built with a Surface Rover on board. The Surface Rover will be programmed to explore regions of interest. The colonists will use the Rover to be better informed about where to find resources, the best travel routes and perform initial scientific tests on geological points of interest. The colonists will service and maintain the rover in between exploration missions to keep the rover at peak operational efficiency.

“The rover has been recovered. Upload of new exploration route currently at 41%. Expected deployment #4 in 5 martian hours.”

Just like the orbital telescopes around our home planet, your colony will take a Space Observatory as part of the Science Module. Not only will the observatory take high resolution images of the Red Planet’s surface, but the parallax increase using a telescope around mars will increase the colonists ability to accurately measure distances to far away objects. It will also act as a deep space warning system for objects that could pose a threat to Mars or Earth.

“Science Module is ready for entry, orbital observatory has been deployed within .5% of target orbital altitude, are we go/no go for entry?”
