====== SALVAGE SPACE: ENVIRONMENT ====== In addition to [[Terrain]] and [[Weather]], Adventurers must anticipate and adapt to extremes of environmental conditions. ☐ **ATMOSPHERIC MIX** \\ Space-faring biological creatures pay close attention to atmospheric composition and quality. ☐ **ELECTRICITY** \\ Surrounded by ubiquitous technology and systems to power it, Adventurers may encounter a variety of electrical conditions even while safely enclosed in ships or stations, in addition to wild natural lightning storms while exploring moons or planets. ☐ **GRAVITY** \\ Ships under thrust, stations with habitation rings, entire asteroids under spin, or moons and planets massive enough each produce gravity or gravity-like effects which the Adventurers must endure or adapt to. ☐ **HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS**\\ Another fact of life surrounded by technology, many opportunities exist to encounter many chemicals and chemical effects harmful to Adventurers. ☐ **HUMIDITY** \\ Extremes of humidity can affect a wide variety of technology the Adventurers rely on. ☐ **LIGHTING** \\ Varieties and extremes of lighting conditions, including arc light from electrical equipment, drive flares, and more create considerable technological adaptation in optics and optic shielding. ☐ **PRESSURE** \\ Spacers, colonists, and researchers living and working in pressurized environments such as spacecraft, stations, asteroids, and undersea installations pay as close attention to atmospheric pressure as they do the atmospheric mix. ☐ **RADIATION** \\ Spacers and colonists closely monitor radiation exposure from natural or technological sources. ☐ **SOUNDS** \\ Station and ship dwelling Adventurers pay attention to the amount and quality of life support and engine sounds and investigate anything "out of sorts" or unexpected they may hear. ☐ **TEMPERATURE** \\ Adventurers must control their exposure to temperature extremes to avoid harmful effects, while living and working in environments hostile to most forms of life. ▲ [[:Chronology:]] ~~DISCUSSION~~
