Without hesitation, I placed my hand on it and closed my eyes. Immediately my mind got filled with all the information to configure the device. It had all the small stuff like temperature, wind flow, the composition of the air, et cetera. All the way through more abstract things, like the possibility to control reproduction under the barrier, or the right to cross it. I could allow animals to go inside, to make them stay away.
I started from scratch by picking the recommended chemicals in the air, then adjusted the temperature, to make it a bit colder than what we had in Arc. I obviously didn't allow any animals in and blocked the reproduction to not involve any potential children in the project.
I went through several other options like the rest of the weather configuration. I kept the natural sky, with the view of the local star, and the beautiful stars and moons during the night.
