The PILGRED Reactor, located in the Engine Room, is the main drive of the Daedalus. Due to hunter attacks, it is broken at the start of every game and needs to be repaired.
Reactor Repairs
PILGRED is not like conventional broken equipment. Items increasing repair chance do not give bonuses, and 
are not used. The PILGRED repairs are similar to NERON Projects and Research in that they require relaying to stay effective. Repeated participation by a single person reduces efficiency. If another person contributes, any other participant's efficiency is reset. Efficiency reductions follow a pattern as they wear down, one notch for each repetition: 9-13%, 7-10%, 5-7%, 3-4%, 1-1%, 0%. Thus, the most efficient way to conduct repairs is for two characters with the 
Physicist or 
Technician skills to alternate working on it.
Participating in the repairs costs 1 
or 2 
. Each repair attempt will advance the total project by a random amount based on the character's Skills.
- 9-13% for Physicist and Technician.
- 5-7% with one or the other. Template:NoteWarn
- 1% for anybody else.
You can work on PILGRED while 
Dirty. In fact, it's advisable to stay dirty while actively working on it since almost every attempt will make you dirty again.
Repairs completion is announced by NERON with the name of the last participant.
Completion of the Reactor
Repairing the reactor unlocks the following options:
- The Commander can bring the Daedalus to Sol for 2 , putting an end to the game.
- The Commander can bring the Daedalus to Eden if the coordinates were calculated, putting an end to the game.
- New Coffee can be fetched from the Coffee Machine in cycles 3, 5 and 7, rather than only once a day.
Bug: Possible bug - the coffee machine is currently regenerating every cycle after PILGRED is fixed.
If the repairs are completed before all crew members have woken up from cryo-sleep, it is possible to go to Sol. No glory will be lost, since technically there is no 
Mush on board.
The PILGRED Reactor will show up as a finished Project icon when it is completed.
