The Martian Settlement is the third martian generator and the 14th generator that produces Ideas overall.
Description[]
"We are no longer just explorers - now we are colonists."
Design[]
The Martian Settlement model looks like a basic survival pod with an external airlock, a few windows and an external MOXIE unit.
Upgrades[]
The Martian Settlement has <number of upgrades> upgrades, increasing the generator efficiency with a <total multiplier>x multiplier.
| Icon | Name | Description | Cost | Efficiency | Requires |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Water Drilling | To gain access to the frozen, underground waters of Mars, we must drill deep into the planet's crust. |  1.32 E21
|
25% | Martian Settlement Resource Extraction Equipment |
|
Ore Refinement | Now that we're beginning to mine Mars' natural metals and minerals, we're going to have to purify them so that we can begin to turn them into new materials. | 1.32 E22

50% | Water Drilling |
|
Crewed Rovers | Exploratory vehicles allow us to travel from one end of the martian desert to the other. Road trip to Olympus Mons, anyone? | 3.30 E22
|
75% | 3 Martian Settlement |
|
Fertilizer Production | If we're going to live on Mars, we need to be able to grow on Mars. Fertilizer makes our soil richer, and the methane and carbon dioxide produced as biproducts are valuable in their own right. | 6.60 E22
|
100% | Martian Settlement Cyanobacteria |
|
Radiation Protection | Long-term radiation protection will be necessary as we begin to colonize Mars. Underground living quarters are one potential solution to this problem. | 9.91 E22

|
Lava Tubes | Mars' underground lava tubes form natural tunnels that are perfect places for underground shelter. | 2.64 E23

100% | 6 Martian Settlement Radiation Protection |
|
Genetic Engineering | We'll need to change our genetic structure to make the human body better suited to life in low gravity. | 6.60 E23
