This is something he's given a lot of thought to, over the years. So his answer isn't long coming. "Even just the basics would be a good start. Non perishable food, water, weapons, basic medical supplies. Earth is a powerhouse at production, but it doesn't do any good if nothing gets sent anywhere ahead of time.

Every colony should have enough to keep everyone going, but everyone thinks it'll never happen to them, so what's the point prepping for an emergency that probably won't happen?"
