The Solar Amplifier is a key component in Phipps’ plan to resist the Ice Warriors. He retrieves it from the Solar Energy Store Room and connects the infra-red lamp to it, preparing to channel energy for a distress signal or other form of sabotage. The amplifier is a tool of human technology, repurposed for defiance, and its use underscores Phipps’ resourcefulness and determination to challenge the Ice Warriors' control.

Before: Stored in the Solar Energy Store Room, unused and part of the Moonbase’s standard equipment, its potential for resistance untapped.
After: Connected to the infra-red lamp, now primed and ready for use in Phipps’ plan, its function transformed from utility to resistance.
