Propulsion Modules

Name	Description	Storage	Input	Requires	Materials	Research
Hydrogen Engine	Burns Liquid Hydrogen to propel rockets for space exploration. The engine of a rocket must be built first before more rocket modules may be added. Hydrogen engines can propel rockets further than steam or petroleum engines.			Liquid Fuel Tank Solid or Liquid Oxidizer Tank Command Capsule	500 kg	Cryofuel Combustion

Rockets can be used to send Duplicants into space and retrieve rare resources.			Liquid Fuel Tank Solid or Liquid Oxidizer Tank Command Capsule	200 kg	Hydrocarbon Combustion
Solid Fuel Thruster	Burns Refined Iron and Oxylite to increase rocket exploration distance. Additional thrusters allow rockets to reach far away space destinations.	800 kg		-400 kg Iron/launch -400 kg Oxylite/launch	200 kg	Solid Fuel Combustion
Solid Oxidizer Tank	Stores Oxylite for burning rocket fuels. Solid oxidizers allows rocket fuel to be efficiently burned in the vacuum of space.	2700 kg Oxylite			100 kg	Hydrocarbon Combustion
Steam Engine	Utilizes Steam to propel rockets for space exploration. The engine of a rocket must be built first before more rocket modules may be added. Rockets can be used to send Duplicants into space and retrieve rare resources.	900 kg Steam	Ventilation: Steam	Command Capsule	2000 kg	Introductory Rocketry

Cargo Modules

Name	Description	Storage	Output	Materials	Research
Biological Cargo Bay	Allow Duplicants to store unusual of organic resources found during space missions. Stored resources become available to the colony upon the rocket's return. Biological cargo bays allow Duplicants to retrieve alien plants and wildlife from space.			1000 kg	Unique Cargo
Cargo Bay	Allows Duplicants to store any Solid resources found during space missions. Stored resources become available to the colony upon the rocket's return. Duplicants will fill cargo bays with whatever resources they find during their space missions.	1000 kg		1000 kg 1000 kg	Solid Cargo
Gas Cargo Canister	Allows Duplicants to store any Gas resources found during space missions. Stored resources become available to the colony upon the rocket's return. Duplicants will fill cargo canisters with whatever resources they find during their space missions.	1,000 kg Gas	Ventilation: Gas	1000 kg	Liquid and Gas Cargo
Liquid Cargo Tank	Allows Duplicants to store any Liquid resources found during space missions. Stored resources become available to the colony upon the rocket's return. Duplicants will fill cargo tanks with whatever resources they find during space missions.	1,000 kg Liquid	Piping: Liquid	1000 kg	Liquid and Gas Cargo
