Quite a few mods in use there, some of which are outdated.

Does this also happen in a new test colony started with no mods at all enabled?
 
I posted this over on the Steam forums but maybe it will help you as well:

"For those getting crashes when you start or save a game I was able to fix this by (in Windows) exiting the game, going to %appdata% (in Windows Explorer just put that in the directory window at the top) scroll down to Surviving Mars and delete or rename the directory "PopsMods" Steam will download your mods again when you restart the game.

If I disable all mods (the horror!) I don't get these crashes so the game must be running out of a resource when it's doing housekeeping."
 
This still happens and also crashes to desktop when changing the graphics settings too.
This was in in a new test colony started with no mods at all enabled? Not just loading a modded save with the mods disabled?

Can we see a crash log with no mods involved please?
