"Commander Tabakov here, I went to Omega-50 today and begun preliminary surveys of the planet Arridendo as a possible Coalition Colony.
The Surface Crust consists of an Icy-layer, the sensors on my Insurgent couldn't reach deeper, a RECON-Scanner equipped vessel will be required to perform a deeper scan of the planet and a team planet-side to test for resources.
Temperatures are rather inhospitable at a high of -48 C on the day-side, -104 C on the night-side, Cold Weather Equipment such as that used of Volgograd would be required for the initial construction of a Colony until Underground Facilities are dug out and equipped while the escape velocity is only slightly more than Volgograd at 10.29 km/s.
It's position within an Asteroid Field poses some threat, but so-long as a localized Shield Generator is used to protect the Colony's landing sector than the threat of asteroid collision is lessened severely, Porto Novo, a Zoner Facility is located close by so we can acquire some basic Food and other supplies from them locally.
The largest threat to the area is the local garrison of Corsairs located somewhere in Southern Omega-50, however should proper precautions be taken than and reinforcements from perhaps one of our allies granted than a colony is possible, difficult but possible.
Thus I recommend a full survey team with a RECON-Scanner equipped vessel be dispatched to conduct a thorough check of the planet for resources other than it's natural water supply though ice.
