I was anticipating all sorts of horrible problems. It appears one Private Cowl bravely his life in service to his space station, so... no more worries about those pipes bursting. (I meant to bury the above-ground pipes; apparently not a problem.) From looking at the input line w/o inflow I determine that the pollutant has all condensed, and the temperature has risen to like 150°C from the night-time of 126°C... rising due to the condensation? Changing pressure never seems to adjust temperature very much... whereas IRL like filling air tanks & tires warms them up, and emptying them cools them down...

I've actually got myself inside the thing via a dirt airlock. (A proper airlock would require like 10 layers.) I am satisfied to report to /egg/ that my suit did not implode like a tin can. Liquid pipes are another matter. I thought it would simplify construction to let one collapse, but it sucks in the high-pressure atmosphere despite being perfectly submerged. Are powered liquid drains even usable? Don't wires short out?
