The Story of the Build

Since I'm playing on the Frosty Planet DLC, I decided to use the ice I got from the map to power my colony.

Deep Explanation

HOW THIS WORKS:
1. Everything starts from here. This is not a 100% self-sustain colony. but 99% I can say. It only needs one thing - ICE. By destroying the starting frosty planet, you should left with plenty of ice. So, why don't we use it as fuel for the rocket colony.
  1. First with a wild arbor tree farm to get wood, which also make a good natural reserve. Turning the wood into ethanol, burning it in the petroleum generator to get power, the heat from both heavy machine will melt the ice into water. And turning the water into oxygen supply.
3. The polluted water generated from ethanol distiller (of cause, also from dupes :L )irrigate the saturn critter traps (fed by infinite bees). They produced hydrogen for more power and food for the colony. That one aquatuner is constantly cooling(or freezing) the base, also the food so they won't spoiled. I'm pretty sure this is a food positive colony and with the infinite food storage there is no worry for food. But you can always bring along extra food when start.
4. To repair the atmo suits, I have 2 Bammoths for reed fiber, and they are fed from 4 superspecialized plume squash plants, which are irrigated by ethanol from the ethanol distiller.
5. In the bammoths ranch, all the mechanized airlocks must be made with uranium to match the radiation requirement for the superspecialized plants. To feed 2 bammoths, usually it requires 8 plume squash plants. Therefore we need superspecialized plume squash to get double yield. Because we only get double amount on yielding , it is important to stack 2 liquid to separate the plants and the bammoths to prevent them consume the plants growth directly.
