Damascus Research Station, helmed by Dr. Raphael Chandler and the Order Science Division (O.S.D.), is an ambitious endeavor aimed at advancing research and development through the concerted efforts of a team of skilled scientists. Chandler's proposal to establish a research facility in the heavily guarded orbit of Akabat, known for its low risk of hostile incursions, was met with approval from the O.S.D. and construction began on April 12th, 827 A.S. by a crew of 200 engineers and specialized ships equipped for the construction and maintenance of space stations. Despite Chandler's close ties to the organization, proper documentation and a clear explanation of the station's purpose and unique mission were required before moving forward. The station represents a significant opportunity for advanced manufacturing and experimentation with Nomad technology, all kept confidential under the oversight of the O.S.D.

The initial phase of the Damascus Research Station's construction was completed with remarkable efficiency, taking only 72 hours to finish with the help of repair ships, base construction vessels, and a team of hardworking engineers numbering 200. During this phase, security within the sector was also increased with the deployment of capital vessels and various wings of bombers and fighters to counter any potential threats to the station. The first phase of construction included the successful establishment of the station and the installation of internal and external systems, including security protocols. The completion of this phase was estimated to take two weeks, with the involvement of essential space ships throughout the process. However, during the early stages of the second week of construction, the station unexpectedly came under attack from the Nomads. Fortunately, the administrator had already organized a formidable defense squad, ordered by the Order Overwatch, and was able to repel the Nomads' aggressive strikes, despite their stealthy and undetected breaches of the powerful defensive lines of Mu.

Despite the implementation of robust defensive measures, the Damascus Research Station suffered some damage during the aggressive assault by the Nomads, but was ultimately defended and preserved by the Black Fleet. As a result, the completion of phase one was slightly delayed, yet the foundation and essential vessels for construction remained intact. The intrusion by hostiles was unexpected, as the station was situated within the heavily guarded orbit of Akabat. Nonetheless, phase one was completed within 20 days, yielding a fully operational base without any damage that would impede research. With the successful defense, the O.S.D. immediately initiated numerous projects, including the expansion of storage capacity and enlargement of research labs, all in the pursuit of the prosperity of the station. Due to the significance of the installation to the organization, phase two was promptly initiated, focused on enhancing the capacities of internal chambers and strengthening the station's overall hull integrity.

With effort and resource allocation, phase two of the Damascus Research Station's development was completed within a critical month, fortifying the facility to the extent that the number of capital vessels required for patrolling the area could be reduced and re-deployed to other fronts. The Order Science Division (O.S.D.) had gathered ample supplies and successfully completed several projects. Dr. Raphael Chandler, who oversaw the project, was satisfied with the results and embarked on new projects with the assistance of experienced O.S.D. member E.F, who possessed scientific expertise. The invested effort yielded substantial returns, as the benefits of the station's expansion became evident over time. Subsequently, further phases of expansion are to be executed with the utmost caution and precision, based on statistical analysis of the previous events, with a focus on the establishment of surveillance, hyperspace, and survey factories, as well as defense systems in preparation for any unforeseen contingencies, while also reinvigorating research and development within the secure chambers, which are expected to be operational in the near future due to the high interest shown by the involved parties and scientists.

Dr. Raphael Chandler, with his expertise and leadership, orchestrated a formidable undertaking to significantly expand the Damascus Research Station. After several months of rigorous research and labor, aimed at meeting the objectives of the Order Science Division (O.S.D.), Dr. Chandler relinquished his role as Administrator and transferred ownership of the station to the O.S.D.'s High Command. This decision was a calculated one, as Dr. Chandler sought to pursue more specialized projects independently and found it challenging to effectively manage the entirety of the station. Nevertheless, his faith in the O.S.D.'s High Command is unwavering, as he has successfully established a solid foundation for the station and is confident in their ability to continue its growth and development.

The Damascus Research Station, under the guidance of the Order Science Division (O.S.D.), embarked on a journey towards its final phase of development. This phase was marked by the integration of advanced technological modules, expansion of existing facilities, and the attainment of peak operational capabilities. The process began with an extensive evaluation of the station's current infrastructure and identifying areas that required improvement. Based on this assessment, a comprehensive plan was devised to incorporate state-of-the-art modules, such as hyperspace systems, advanced surveillance systems, and cutting-edge research labs.

The construction of these new modules was a challenging task, as it required the coordination of various teams, including engineers, scientists, and technicians. The O.S.D.'s High Command closely supervised the progress of the construction, ensuring that the highest standards of quality were met. The use of cutting-edge construction techniques and materials, such as advanced composites and smart alloys, allowed for the efficient and rapid completion of the new modules. In parallel to the construction of new modules, the existing facilities of the station were also expanded to accommodate the increased operational capabilities. This included the expansion of storage capacity, the addition of new research labs, and the enhancement of the station's overall hull strength. The O.S.D.'s High Command also implemented advanced security protocols to protect the station from any potential hostile incursions.

As the construction progressed, the station's operational capabilities were gradually increased, and it reached its peak operational capabilities. The station was now equipped with futuristic systems, which allowed for faster and more efficient travel through hyperspace. The surveillance systems were also upgraded, allowing for real-time monitoring of the surrounding area, and the research labs were expanded to accommodate more scientists and technicians. The final phase of the station's development was marked by the successful integration of all the necessary high-tech modules, the expansion of existing facilities, and the attainment of peak operational capabilities. The O.S.D.'s High Command, under the direction of Dr. Raphael Chandler, can take pride in the fact that the station has become a premier research and development facility, capable of contributing to the advancement of science and technology in unprecedented ways. The station's success is a testament to the O.S.D.'s High Command's dedication, expertise, and unwavering commitment to excellence.

OSD acknowledges invaluable contributions of Dr. Sally Wilson, whose masterful work was important in the final phase of the station's development. Dr. Wilson's expertise in advanced propulsion systems and research methodology, coupled with her leadership skills, played a crucial role in the successful integration of the high-tech modules and the expansion of existing facilities. Her tireless efforts and dedication were a driving force behind the station's attainment of peak operational capabilities. Furthermore, the success of the final phase of the station's development would not have been possible without the support and contributions of the entire fleet of the Order Science Division. The engineers, scientists, and technicians worked diligently to bring the station to its feet and build a strong foundation, their expertise and professionalism were vital to the realization of this ambitious project.
