Four Nuclear Generating Areas are mentioned in Force Of Life ("Nuclear Generating Areas 1,2,3 and 4"). Nuclear Generating Area 3 is seen in Force Of Life. An identical room, named the "Generating Area", is seen in Alpha Child (this could be either NGA 1,2 or 4).
Another design of nuclear reactor is seen as part of the Life Support Complex in The Exiles (actually it is a smaller complex than NGA3). Variations of the Year 2 Power Room (without the security area) are seen in One Moment Of Humanity and The A B Chrysalis. The reactor door appears in other areas of Moonbase. See also: the Main Power Unit and Life Support. |
