As midnight approaches on our third Sol of the Mars mission, much has been accomplished. Life support systems have been built, providing oxygen and water. Additional windmills have been erected to power those systems as well. Our research is progressing well, giving us access to more technology.
A cargo rocket has been dispatched from Earth, bringing additional pre-fab structures which will give us a head start on production of basics. We hope that we will soon develop the technology to build these structures with the supplies we harvest and produce on Mars. The rocket is also carrying additional supplies including polymers, machine parts and electronics. We will need these from Earth until we can produce our own. 5 additional drones will be on that rocket as well. The more drones at our disposal, the more efficient building and gathering will be.
HUGE discovery today. Our surface scanners have found a water deposit! It lies just a little North-West of our position.
