gollark: I think we want fairly redundant life support, though the outside atmosphere would be usable if you filter the chlorine out I think.
gollark: Beamed power from the solar/laser arrays somehow?
gollark: Also, the atmosphere has it at 2%, so I'm not sure where you would put it.
gollark: That would probably break the ecosystem.
gollark: Also, I kind of want to do hexagonal buildings.
