Gameplay Goals: [[Ion Engines]] allow space stations to travel between planets without needing to ship up [[Rocket Fuel]], using FE to create propulsion directly, though providing slightly less thrust. To help with this power draw, [[Fusion Energy]] also becomes available here, which will be needed for [[Tier 4 - Astrophage and Interstellar Travel]].

Materials:
[[Neodymium]] (Supermagnets for fusion and ion tech)
[[Tungsten]] (Heat shielding for inside of fusion reactors, maybe add tungsten carbide? Complexity here can be saved for the modpack)
Gasses such as [[Ammonia]], [[Helium-3]], and [[CO2]] from [[Gas Giant Skimmer|Gas Giant Skimming]]

Machines:
[[Fusion Energy|Fusion Reactor]]
[[Ion Engines]]
[[Gas Giant Skimmer]]
