"We have several months worth of food, water, and air but not enough to last until we expect resupply or rescue. So we need to acquire more. Preliminary scans indicate that the planet probably has breathable air and clearly has water so our main limit is going to be food."
"We need to either find existing food sources or create new ones. We don't have any farming equipment, but should be able to improvise. This is where I expect people to volunteer ideas from the equipment they've been using."

"We should name it after side 7. But new side 7 is a silly name so it should be Blue Noa or something similar."
That Noa is also Noa's name is a very nice coincidence but its nice to have another reason she can use.
"The landing site can be Shiden field, now shut up."
Honestly giving this much of a concession is probably a mistake but Kai was out first and he's feeling pretty generous given the planet is on track to be named after him side 7.
"So Blue Noa for the planet, Septimus for the star, and maybe New Atlantis for the island?"
The first two are only logical. New Atlantis was just the first island name she could thing of but it feels right.

"You lot sure settle things easily, I'm not disagreeing with any name, but this is a pretty momentous occasion. The naming of a whole new world feels like it should be more of a big deal.
This all feels... anticlimactic. Future generations will watch the cam footage and expect a proud line of humanities finest marching out the door ready to conquer a brave new world. This feels more like a field trip."
Not that it feeling like a field trip was a bad thing. The white base crew sure were very relaxed for a military crew, but it must be a good way of doing things since they went pretty much undefeated during the war.
"Quick decision making has always been one of our strong points. I do have a speech planned, but am saving it for the flag raising and official naming."
This is not technically a lie in that he is planning it now.
"The flag is still secured in storage from the descent. If Fraw fetches it while we get the site set up we'll be ready to go."
