The colonists notice an incoming object from space. It crashes to the ground next to the painted prefab shelter. It's the supply pod!

The colonists discuss rationing amongst themselves. They agree that if it comes to it, they'll all be willing to eat short rations for as long as is necessary - none of them expected the life of a space colonist to be easy! Some of them joke about how they should have left some of the specialists behind in favor of cattle, but of course it would be prohibitively impractical to keep the cattle alive and fed on a barren, mostly-airless asteroid, even if they could have afforded the extra fuel, and somehow found room for the beasts aboard the deep-space transport vessel during the long voyage out. But maybe once they're better established, they can persuade GFP to find a way to send them some livestock?

The biologist, having completed the design for a simple hydroponics vat, realizes that some of the concepts they used in that design might also apply to a design for a bigger algae tank. They shift their research in that direction.
New project: Design - Small Algae Tank (2 Turns)

The construction drone is directed to build a compact algae tank next to the existing one, costing 10 plasticarbon.
New project: Build - Compact Algae Tank (1 Turn)

The scouting drone is sent to the northeast. It moves 3 spaces, reaches the edge of the asteroid, and stops. Along the way, it crosses an ice field covered in mysterious stalks. The biologist and geologist get into another argument about whether the formations could have been created by lifeforms of some kind, but the data gathered so far is insufficient to settle it.

The artist, whose name is Shiva, decides they're not satisfied with their art project. They begin chipping patterns in the paint. They also steal a little more time on the algae tank to get some green paint, which they'll mix with what's left of their red paint to get a dark brown - the closest they can manage to black at the moment (-1 Food Production this turn). The other colonists are starting to give Shiva some nasty looks for this continual tampering with food production.

Some of the colonists, including the medic, are concerned by how little time the colonists had to react between when they first spotted the incoming supply pod and when it landed. What if its landing guidance systems had misfired?
