Aquilo a desolate, freezing ocean planet. Its surface consists solely of a vast ocean of liquid ammonia, with the occasional floating iceberg.
Progression wise, Aquilo is meant to be visited after establishing factories on all the previous planets as research on Aquilo requires the research from Gleba, Vulcanus and Fulgora to be unlocked.
Required Research
Exclusive items
The following items are unlocked on Aquilo:
- Cryogenic plant
- Cryogenic science pack
- Fusion generator
- Fusion reactor
- Railgun turret
- Railgun
- Captive biter spawner
- Portable fusion reactor

Natural resources
In terms of directly exploitable natural resources, Aquilo has:
With crude oil being the only non-exclusive resource to Aquilo, excluding ice obtained from Lithium Ice Formation.
Stone, iron and copper (and coal if desired) need to be imported from other planets as Aquilo lacks ways to obtain these from the environment.
Access to basic resources
- Water can be obtained via Ammoniacal solution separation and Ice melting
- Stone is not available and must be shipped in from other planets
- Iron ore is not available and must be shipped in from other planets
- Copper ore is not available and must be shipped in from other planets
- Coal is not available and must be shipped in from other planets
- Crude oil can be obtained using pumpjacks as normal
Mechanics
Freezing
Aquilo is brutally cold. Most entities will freeze and stop working unless heated by a heat pipe in an adjacent tile. Heat can be generated by the nuclear reactor or heating tower. Buildings also cannot be placed on the surface of the iceberg itself; concrete (or its variants) must be placed underneath as an insulator. The harshly low temperature will also make construction robots and logistic robots much weaker, making them consume 5 times more power than normal.
Once a building is attached to an adjacent heat pipe, it will consume heat energy to maintain it's state, reducing the energy (and temperature) in the heat pipe.
The following Entities are immune from freezing:

Burner Entities | |
Electric Poles | |
Rail Pieces | |
Trains | |
Vehicles | |
Bots | |
Lamps | |
Circuit Network Inputs and Outputs | |
Solar and Fusion Power Generation | |
Heat Generators | |
Heat Pipes | |
Offshore Pumps | |
Lightning collectors | |
Space Cargo Hub and Bays | |
Walls and Gates | |
Flamethrower and Tesla Turrets |
Solar
Aquilo is also far from the sun, and so solar panels only output at 1% of their rate on Nauvis, or 0.6 kW during the day.
Space routes
Aquilo is connected to 2 other planets, Gleba and Fulgora, along with the Solar system edge
Planet | Distance (km) |
---|---|
Gleba | 30,000 |
Fulgora | 30,000 |
Solar system edge | 100,000 |
