If you were supposed to get an email from the forum but didn't (e.g. to verify your account for registration), email Wes at stararmy@gmail.com or talk to me on Discord for help. Sometimes the server hits our limit of emails we can send per hour.
So it is pretty much a single use item. Because you are driving the thruster pod into the ground to hold it upright, which pretty much precludes firing them up again.
