Heisenberg Research station belongs to the Freelancer IFF, as such, may not be "owned" by anyone. You may, however, ''base off'' it. However, you will not be able to enforce docking rights on other players, no matter their ID or your personal diplomacy.

Formally, IRG still administer the base. See roleplay here. However it is not "owned" by them and it won´t be since nobody wants to see more drama related to attempts to "own" Freelancer IFFed bases.
Freelancer (so generic) bases are under no one's rule, although there's a catch: one party may roleplay the administration but such administration cannot harm third party characters.
There was a case of two factions, with one faction being administration of a Freelancer base. The other faction used that fact to deny third parties any access to said base, what pretty much created series of issues for players completely unaffiliated with either side of the hostilities.
Before someone brings up that this has not been an issue before, I will just remind you that the decision to outright state that we do not allow generic Iff bases to be''owned'' by player factions is a recent decision due to recent issues with existing official factions.

@sindroms Then I must pull out that question: what in case of the Zoner bases? While according to the rules Zoners are the faction, they are pretty much bunch of heavily unaffiliated civilians according to the lore.
@"Chance" Then you are free to roleplay administation of such a base if you like - or organization based on that base. My beloved Heisenberg is huge and most important of all it is an actual research station, so it would be logical for scientists to settle in here.
