Starting out on Aquilo question
what can I use as fuel to power the heating tower?
I forgot or didnt know i needed to drop this off

will i need to load my ship up with coal or something to be dropped off?

also what is a good power source to start?

If i would go to Aquilo, i would bring nuclear fuel and some nuclear reactors. They can provide the heat to heat your buildings and generate power. According to the ingame factopedia, there is no point in solar (1%). Or import rocket/uranium fuel but don`t know how efficient that would be ....

Having some solar panels and accums is helpful when first starting. That being said, you 100% need to ship in some sort of fuel, ideally nuclear.
