In this episode I try a new method for mixing Oxygen, CO2 and Nitrogen for my living area. The atmospherics also put a strain on my power grid forcing some upgrades.

From what i recall from my Mars station the window frames cast a shadow on the solar panels and reduce the output by a few percent and the air in the enclosure keeps getting warmer but it's beginning at the low Mars pressure so it probably won't burst the windows at some point.
When you put suit on you start with the base atmosfer. with 20% nitrogen and 90kPa. An your suit cant remove nitrogen, but you have 1/3 pressure in it. So you end with 40% oxygen atm at 32 kPa. So flush suit, up pressure in suit or put nitrogen filter (it should last for very long). And about slow fill airlock by active vent (from few episode ago) – active vent can take only atmosfer from connected pipe system in on tick. So make pipe system larger or pressure it if you want to avoid inrush air when open door.

Great episode! Lots of interesting atmospherics info
WOW I skipped a few episodes, and now you're indoors and in a proper station. 😮
