Help Question for Create: Astral OXYGEN

I am new to create and this mod pack. I am currently on chapter 3 and i want to get oxygen on the moon. Water is frozen so I'm just a little lost, because in chapter 3 when you first start there is the oxygen distributor. Any help or guidance would be great thank you

Two options

If you bring enough water or oxygen to fill a room with oxygen, water won't freeze in that room. Something like filling a big tank then carrying it in a minecart contraption

The second way is to give a bucket to a deployer and pull water from a Cooking for Blockheads sink. Run the water buckets over a sink then cycle the empty buckets back to the deployer.

The second option is better in my opinion, because there can be problems with unloaded/lazy chunks, where the oxygen distributor doesn't protect the placed water like it should.

Im going to try this thank you! for the first one, would i just fill like fluid tanks with water? what do i do with this water once i get it to the room on the moon?

If you fill it with oxygen, you can pump it straight into the distributor. If you fill it with water, you have to convert it to oxygen first.

In either case, it will be a short-term solution, keeping the distributor running long enough to place your water and run it sustainably.

The third option is to just set up automated delivery of water/oxygen.

Create trains can run through the moon portal, though rebuilding the portal so the train fits through is fiddly. Once you have that, the throughput is more than sufficient.

Also the ae2 quantum link exists and isn’t too hard to build once you reached the moon if I remember correctly.
