Valkyrie Production Facility [V]- - Valkyrie Production Facility - 10-04-2012
Ingame background and purpose:
Valhalla. The realm of the Gods. Project Valhalla began as an attempt to uncover the secrets of the Universe through the advancement of science. A group of scientists sought scientific freedom far away from House law and academic restrictions and joined up with a Zoner group which supports the project with research material from the deep Omicrons and provides the necessary funding.
Started early in 818 by Dr. Martin Zelig, a New Berlin researcher that had to quit his University career under undisclosed circumstances and disappeared from Rheinland, Project Valhalla has since advanced to a fully equipped research/production facility, located deep within the Sigma-13 nebula. With research being conducted in a number of different fields, the goal of the project remains only one: the Transcendence of the Human Race.
Research departments:
Physics Department: Lead by Dr. Angus Jones, the Physics Department deals with both theoretical and applied physics. Currently, the department focuses on Optical Physics and alternate propulsion methods.
Chemistry Department: Lead by Gabriel Zimmermann, the Chemistry Department deals mainly in Organic and Inorganic Chemistry, although other subdomains are not completely neglected. The current focus of the department is on drug-design and terraforming.
Biology Department: Lead by Dr. Clara Hemingway, the Biology Department focuses on the Human Body, genetics and microbial life. Undergoing projects include the study of the human brain, as well as genetically modified microorganisms.
Xenobiology Department: Lead by Dr. Geoff Lynchpin, the Xenobiology Department focuses exclusively on the study of Nomads, with most of the research being focused on the Nomad brain.
Production facilities:
Cloaking Device Factory: A joint effort of the Physics and Xenobiology Department, this factory is able to produce cloaking devices of various sizes, by bending the light around the cloaked object with the use of a nomad brain powered computer.
Hyperspace Scanner Factory: Capable of producing scanners that collect all the necessary data that is needed for a hyperspace jump.
Jupdrive Factory: An astonishing success of modern physics, the jumpdrive is capable of bending the space around it, thus shortening the distance between 2 given points.
Storage Capabilities:
Valkyrie Production Facility is equipped with a large amount of storage space. This is beneficial when loading and unloading barge class vessels of supplies. This can also be used to stockpile H-3 that is mined by our allies the GMG, until it is ready for pickup.
Defensive capabilities:
The Tetrahedron Defensive Network, or TDN, is an array of defensive platform, strategically placed around the station in order to defend it against hostile attacks. Currently, the TDN is still under construction and only operates at a 25% capacity.
The Vanagandr Defense Squadron: Should the need arise, a squadron of fighter/bombers, lead by Cmdr. Alvarez Montoya, can launch and defend the base, swiftly dealing with any threats, while benefiting from cover fire provided by the TDN. As the intentions of the Zoner installation are peaceful, no offensive action is taken.
