I felt as though sending a satellite to space which "dicovered" science packs out of nowhere was nonsensical and not in the spirit of from ruble to science like the rest of the packs so I made my adaptaion and tried to add some complexity :P

This mod instead makes it so that you send a space drill into space which then (in theory) gathers chunks of the moon for you. This moon rock is then used to make the good old space science which is now a recpie.

I would like to thank emptyrivers, GalactusX31 and Lovely_Santa for helping me to write the code for this mod.

I have no graphic design experience and as such I apologies for the graphics in advance :P

Features:
- New Technology: Rocket Silo 2
- New Item: Space Drill Mk 1 (unlocked with normal silo research)
- New item: Space Drill Mk 2 (much bigger yeild)
- New recipe: Space science now uses 4 moon rock to craft 3 space science packs (due to added complexity and the fact that all other sciences can be prod moduled, now so can the space packs :P)
- The option to mine cheese instead of rocks from the moon
