Space Age expansion exclusive feature.
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
Surface
Properties
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Pollutant Type | None |
| Day Night Cycle | 20 Minutes |
| Magnetic Field | 10 |
| Solar Power | 01% |
| Pressure | 300 |
| Gravity | 15 |
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 (except in a few particular locations); 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. Note that underground belts and pipes are substantially larger heat drains than their above-ground versions.

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) |
