Farm

The Cave Farm

-Maintained primarily by Friendship life support system.

Soil-Heating:

''dozens of meters of plumbing, all with fittings designed to fit the cold water terminal on the life control box. And today Dragonfly fitted them all together into long rows, and Fireball and I buried them all a couple feet into the soil. There’s one fitting sticking up at one end to hook to the life support box and another fitting that will have a valve. That’ll be left open to let water circulate through the system, and the outflow will be used to water crops or just allowed to trickle off downstream into the back of the cave.''

Air-heating:

A 200W space heater to warm the air, backed by 8 solar panels and fuel cells

It was still chilly, but no more so than an early spring or late fall morning.

Lighting

Enchanted Crystals

The crystals lit up the inside of the cave as bright as the barren world outside, if not more so, thanks to Starlight’s ingenious enchantment

The light crystals weigh an average of fifty kilograms for the receivers and as much as two HUNDRED kilograms for the projectors. (These are Big Bucking Quartz Crystals, y'all.)
