The turbine is a tertiary power source accessed through maintenance tunnels adjacent to Atmospherics.

The gas turbine is an alternative way to produce power on the station, exclusive to an Atmospheric Technician. Although it will probably be the last power source to be set up on the station, it is still capable of producing upwards of 50 kW. You can accomplish this with a method of pumping in compressed gas mixtures to pressurize the chamber, then ignite the mixture to pressurize it further. When turned on, the turbine utilizes this reaction to produce power relative to the pressure building in the chamber.
