Doubles Economy energy production at this base, and doubles Minerals production rate at all bases whilst they are producing satellites. The minerals it produces do not contribute to ecological damage.

Units equipped with drop pods may now make Orbital Insertions anywhere on the Planet.

Enables all bases to fully exploit and to construct satellites regardless of whether they have Aerospace Complexes.
