Note: Not sure how much we should be/need to be micromanaging some of these aspects. If the solar collector is our day 1 task then maybe we don't need to talk about this yet.

From page 1 items:

Communication Equipment - Allows communication with earth when working. Can receive important information from headquarters.


We don't know how important "important information" is, but it sounds...important? It seems we're going to have to make decisions about facilities to protect based on some of what EF has said.
