3 -* High mass teleportation researched, and spoken to Boso Ta afterwards
4 -* Have a module to construct M and S ships on the HQ (not required to actually start terraforming but needed for subsequent progression)
5 -* Have storage capabilities for container, solid and liquid wares on the HQ (not required to actually start terraforming but needed for subsequent progression)
6 -* Accept a terraforming mission
7 -* Teleport the HQ to the sector specified by the mission briefing
8 -* Open the terraforming menu (this is new icon at the top of the screen) and select a project to work on
