And at c430, you see the first application of the multi-output cooling rig.

The oil in the pool is still dropping in temperature, it's only about 21c, but it will keep going down to nearly -30c. The ph2o is cycling through the top-left cube, cooling as it goes, to keep a) the h2o for irrigation and b) the gas around the blossoms cool.

The cooling loop covers two levels, cuz we also want mealwood (for the seeds, for the fish).

So. Naturally, we turn to cooling. Wait, what? We need the berry sludge. For that, we need a sleet wheat farm and a bristle blossom farm, and they both need some cooling so we can stop paying attention to them.

This is a multi-output cooling rig. The central oil column is chilled close to -40c.

Each aluminum cube has radiant pipes running through it,. and a thermo sensor in the middle.

Cold injectors open and close to cool the cube to the target temperature.

Now c425. As I say, Halyconia has left my gruntles in a decidedly dis state, so I'm plugging away there.

There's no "crisis", it's just way too wobbly, with a constant need for me to pay attention, which is exactly what we don't want when we're off exploring space.

So. Food. Food's been wobbling for a couple of reasons: 1) stone hatches consume an extraordinary amount of stone, and somebody's gotta dig that out and ship it. 2) Berry sludge production is too slow.

But it's not *all* going that well. The bad news: the very compact research reactor just isn't meeting my needs back home at Halcyonia.

It works, but its production is too low for all my radbolt needs, and it runs too intermittently to satisfy the Totally Rad achievement.

I am starting there to build a somewhat larger rig. Not the full-on, but a three-turbine one I've used before.

Sucks, and will take 20+ cycles to get a new one.

On Stinkato, there's little change, just continuing cleanup.

But on Lushera we're rapidly increasing our enriched uranium output.

Once the interplanetary launcher is turned on back home, we can supply Lushera with whatever food or resources it needs. RIght now, it needs plastic, and I'm sending a ship to deliver, but soon, soon.

There, we'll continue to uncover and tap metal volcanoes.

One more for this thread. It's c400.

On Halcyonia, we have a working research reactor, and soon a working thrower and double materials study terminals.

This design is tight, and it works very well. I love how compact it is. One downside: it doesn't qualify for the Totally Rad, because of the throttling.

No matter, we can build another one in vacuum somewhere and run it for five cycles at full strength.
