The Nuclear Reactor is constructed with the Habitat Builder, and can only be placed in the center of a Multipurpose Room or on a centerpiece in a Large Room. While operational, the Nuclear Reactor will continuously hum. The Nuclear Reactor generates energy at a rate of 250 power per minute (4.166667 per second) until all installed Reactor Rods are filled. It will only fill one Reactor Rod at a time. Each Reactor Rod can store a maximum of 625 energy. It takes 150 seconds to fill each rod. A Nuclear Reactor can hold four Reactor Rods, for a total of 2500 energy. When power is being consumed at the base, the Nuclear Reactor will not drain until all other energy sources are depleted. Once the Reactor Rods are fully consumed, they will leave behind Depleted Reactor Rods. These must be disposed of in a Nuclear Waste Disposal.

Recipe

The blueprint for this module is acquired by scanning the Nuclear Reactor in Research Base Omega or the second segment of the Crashed Ship in the Lilypad Islands. It is crafted with the Habitat Builder. (no target detected)

Databank Entry

Nuclear Reactor
<poem>Renewable energy sources will usually be sufficient for maintaining a small outpost. For everything else there's nuclear power. - Powered by up to four replaceable uranium reactor rods - Do not attempt to replace reactor rods without a full radiation suit - Do not attempt to overclock the reactor Nuclear is ideal for energy-intensive operations such as: - Self-sufficient colonies supporting more than 20 people - Industrial outposts operating multiple docks and heavy machinery - Research stations housing live specimens</poem>
