Human Expedition is the 15th Civilization and the 2nd Mars Civilization generator obtained in the Primary Simulation, which can generate Ideas Ideas.

Design

The Human Expedition is modeled like a stylized rocket with with four fins. There are also some windows at one of the sides at the top where a cockpit could be located.

Description

"For the first time, humans travel to another planet. We are now officially an interplanetary species."

Upgrades

Human Expedition has 9 upgrades, increasing the generator efficiency with a total x10.00925 multiplier.

Icon	Name	Description	Cost	Efficiency	Requires
	Deflection Shields	Mars has a thin atmosphere and exposure to radiation and solar flares is dangerous for our human explorers. We need protection in the form of shields to guard us.	Ideas 1.39e19	15%	Human Expedition
	Martian Mining	Mars has many volcanoes, and as a result, the planet is rich with compounds and minerals like copper, iron, nickel, lead, silver, bismuth, and many more.	Ideas 2.11e19	50%	Human Expedition
	Cyanobacteria	Cyanobacteria is necessary for soil adaptation and for the viable production of food, fuel, and oxygen. By cultivating these tiny organisms, we have opened up the potential for long-term life support on the Red Planet.	Ideas 2.64e19	20%	Human Expedition
	Resource Extraction Equipment	Mining isn’t easy when you’re the first people on the planet. We’ll need drilling and extraction equipment if we’re going to harvest the planet’s abundant geological resources.	Ideas 3.17e19	50%	Martian Mining
	Microgravity Research	Time spent in space is hard on an astronaut’s body. The effects of low gravity on bones is still being studied, and we’ll need to know more before we begin sending astronauts on long interplanetary missions.	Ideas 6.6e19	15%	Human Expedition
	HAB	HAB is short for Habitation Module, a pressurized environment that offers protection from the sun, radiation, and dust storms.	Ideas 6.67e19	25%	Deflection Shields
	Biodome	The next step up from the HAB, biodomes are closed ecological systems. As more explorers land on Mars, this is where they will live.	Ideas 1.06e20	30%	3 Human Expedition HAB
	Psychological Support	The first astronauts to land on Mars will have to be psychologically strong. Months of separation from their families back on Earth, and the isolation of space, can take their toll on the human psyche, and we’ll need good support to keep these explorers mentally well.	Ideas 1.32e20	50%	6 Human Expedition
	Propellant Production Plant	The sooner we can use the resources of Mars to create the fuel we need to send space shuttles between the Red Planet and Earth, the better.	Ideas 2.64e21	15%	Resource Extraction Equipment

Achievements

Icon	Name	Description	Requires
	Reach For the Stars	Mars is there, waiting to be reached. —Buzz Aldrin.	25 Human Expedition
	Red Rover	Mars tugs at the human imagination like no other planet. With a force mightier than gravity, it attracts the eye to the shimmering red presence in the clear night sky. —John Noble Wilford.	50 Human Expedition
	Viking Exploration	The Viking Lander on Mars is a toy grown to large size, a metaphor of a dream; that dream of extending our will, our hand, our seeing eye to another world. It is not a machine, it is us. —Ray Bradbury.	100 Human Expedition
	Dust in the Wind	Mars experiences large and violent dust storms due to the unique elliptical shape of its orbit around the Sun.	150 Human Expedition
	Sol Searching	It takes Mars 687 Earth days to complete its orbit of the Sun. A day (or "sol") on Mars takes 24 hours, 37 minutes, and 22 seconds to complete.	250 Human Expedition
