Watering the Crops

"Guess I won't be bringing my skis on my next mission." DaVinci Brown thought to himself as he continued to read the briefing files on the history of Sanderra...
One early success the colonists of Sanderra had was with the introduction of flora more suitable to an arid desert environment:

Within three years of the colony's founding they would face a serious problem, though. What meager water supplies there were trapped in underground aquifers had been used up, and the crops were beginning to die.



The best solution was to build a series of irrigation canals from the river. With a great deal of Commonwealth aid to sustain them over the next two years, the first canal was completed and the colony was able to begin growing once again.






Night lighting was installed along the canal following a tragic accident involving the death of a young man after a Groundfall Day celebration.
