T5.1 — I transferred the Microbial Fuel Cell from the Freighter to the Rocket, which flew to the Home Bernal (at L5s) and Research Grants to get the Collimator Bernal, which happened to be on top. It’s … pretty good. I could use the powersat privilege (with the Pulsed-Inductive thruster, which admittedly is about to be replaced) but in any case, it has a useful power.
