= Mars =

The thin martian atmosphere contains useful gasses for growing plants and base pressurization. Mars suffers from [[storm]]s that damage [[solar cells]] and blow away loose items. The temperature is Earthlike during the day.

The Moon is a vacuum, so the challenge is to capture gases. Fortunately the Sun is at a 0° so it's easy to capture power with a simple solar setup.

= Europa =

Europa is a freezing hellscape. The extreme temperatures drain batteries and it takes a lot of power to keep warm. The weak Sun makes it hard to use solar. It's recommended to start with coal power.

= Mimas =
Mimas has no atmosphere requiring collection of gases elsewhere. The extreme solar angle and distance from the Sun will make solar far less reliable. The low gravity will make you fly in the air some distance before coming back down again. The breathtaking view of Saturn provides a spectacular place to build a base.

= Vulcan =

For those looking for a harder challenge, Vulcan should fit the bill. The atmosphere is mostly volatiles, and it's very hot. Be very careful with oxygen, because it can and will combust if it is released in the atmosphere. For that reason, the planet lacks ice, and one must trade instead of mine to obtain gases such as oxygen and nitrogen.

= Loulan =

DISCONTINUED
(To play on Loulan click custom world underneath the description of the planet selection, and select the Loulan preset.)

Loulan has a breathable atmosphere and the temperature range is not hazardous. It has ruined structures scattered across the terrain which can be scavenged for building supplies. The player starts with a [[Hardsuit_Backpack|Hardsuit Backpack]], and a [[Headlamp]], but without a helmet or suit and this is not a serious handicap. A Jetpack is not part of the starting equipment. Battery charging is not a matter of life and death, but without batteries the headlamp will not light your way at night.

The greatest challenge is food since seeds are not part of the starting equipment. The player must either scavenge some seeds from ruins, trade, or use an [[Organics Printer]] to create them. While the gas mix is compatible with farming, the low night temperature is not, so a greenhouse must be operated at the right temperature. The easiest way is to open up the airlock during the day with warm 20 degrees air, and close it at night.

Very similar to the moon, instead of a single body there are scattered Asteroids the challenge in addition to collecting gases is maintaining jetpack fuel needed to move between Asteroids

= [[Venus]] =

Unvarying extreme temperatures and ultra-high pressures make Venus no place for the faint-hearted. Only the most accomplished Stationeers will survive on our once-sister planet, now a barren rock. Dig deep, or go home.

The starting kit doesn't contain seeds, but it contains the equipment required for trading. And unlike on some other worlds, a portable water tank is also provided in the starting kit, however setting up water bottle filling will require some work.

One the main difficulties of Venus is that it doesn't contain any ice.

Storing water got you down? At the expense of power, you can turn that excess water into a bunch of heat and a somewhat risky mix of Oxygen and Volatiles using the new Electrolysis Machine. Available on the existing Atmospherics kit with Air Conditioners and Filtration machines.

==Usage==
# Select [[Kit (Atmospherics)]] for placement, and change the variant to Electrolyzer.
# Connect liquid pipe to the '''Input''' liquid connection to transfer water into the machine.
# Connect gas pipe to the '''Output''' gas connection to remove the created H2 and O2.

==Notes==
* H2 and O2 are produced mixed together in a single gas pipe, creating a dangerous fuel mixture that can be directly used in a furnace.
* Assuming in vacuum conditions, the Electrolyzer always outputs [[Oxyhydrogen]] (ie fuel) at 20 Celcius. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-temperature_electrolysis
* The conversion rate is 1 mol [[Water|H2O]] produces 1 mol [[Oxygen|O2]] and 2 mols [[Volatiles|H2]].
* If the temperature inside the Electrolyzer reaches 32°C (50C?), autoignition occurs, creating heat, and converting virtually all O2 and H2 inside the machine into CO2 and X. Keep this in mind on high-temperature worlds.
* If autoignition occurs, it doesn't propagate to the gas pipe connected to the Electrolyzer, so the gas already removed is safe, provided it is insulated from further temperature increases.
* The Electrolyzer's internal volume is generally separated from the pipe network, and it can release its content only if the machine is turned on.
