| Summary | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| We look to explore the icy moons of the ringed planet. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Like its larger neighbor, Jupiter, the gaseous Saturn cannot support any infrastructure, let alone life. However, it does boast considerable quantities of deuterium and helium-3, both of great interest as a fusion energy source. In addition, some of the moons within Saturn's vast and icy rings are extremely promising for human habitation, particularly the largest, the aptly named Titan, which possesses all the elements required to sustain life. Despite its extreme cold and the nitrogen-based atmosphere, there may be no better target for colonization in the entire Solar System. The smaller Enceladus is also a prime candidate for long-term settlement. All of this is not even to mention that there is far less radiation in the Saturnian system than around Jupiter, and therefore, a far easier life for those who choose to dwell there. Saturn is a great and arduous distance to travel, but as well as the abundance of resources and potentially inhabitable land, from Saturn's moons we can launch ourselves to the outer worlds and closer to wherever these extraterrestrials truly hail from. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Allows sending probes to Saturn and construction of habitats on and around its moons | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The number of habitat mining modules we can support without paying a Mission Control cost increases by 6 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
