[color=#33CC00]HALL 1 - SYNTH FOODS PRESENTATION

An intricate stand is set up alongside a small section of one wall within the hall; a large table with neatly-stacked tubes of synth paste and eager staff handing out samples, behind which hangs a large display screen showing the Synth Foods corporate logo. Off to the left of the display is a small mock-up of a biodome interior, replete with plants and a small aquaculture tank. Soon, the logo on the display fades away and is replaced by a young gentleman.

Welcome, and thank you for your interest in Synth Foods, Incorporated. The fore-front of food production and processing, Synth Foods has always been in the leader in developing new products to cater not only to the tastes of our customers, but to fulfill those special needs where food may not be so easily accessible. Today, I would like to direct you our new selection of Synth Paste flavors, each one representing the rich variety of regional cuisines found throughout colonial Sirius; tried-and-true, Synth Paste has been a favorite for generations. One of our newer products, developed for the Kusari market, is a select line dubbed 'Power Paste'; one part functional food and five parts energy supplement, Power Paste aims to keep the non-stop, active lifestyles of Kusarians fueled.

Beyond food products, Synth Foods is also proud to be the leader in planetary and orbital agricultural technologies. Through our extensive research facilities on planet Stuttgart, the greatest minds in engineering and plant sciences have initiated a program to develop Synth Food's next line of biodome products: the Phase-2 Project.

Phase-2 represents years of research into developing a self-sustaining, artificial agricultural system that supports all-natural flora and fauna life. By combining the latest aeroponics technologies, automated environmental and gravitational controls, and modular support systems, Phase-2 biodomes can provide a near-terrestrial agricultural environment in nearly any environment. Researchers indicate that, beyond a well-balanced diet, sufficient exposure to a terrestrial environment is beneficial to both the mind and body. One of our latest developments in Phase-2 is the TruSky atmospheric simulator:

To the side, the mock-up biodome structure buzzes to life.

Utilizing multi-spectrum emitters TruSky simulates a terrestrial atmosphere covering similar light and radiation backgrounds, yet can be adjusted as required to suit the needs of special flora and fauna. Bringing all of these components together, Phase-2 can provide the sensation of terra firma to those who live amidst the stars, and a small slice of paradise for planets that have yet to be tamed.

Though Phase-2 is still under development, Synth Foods has opened the program up to external investment. We hope that other see our vision of a brighter, and well-fed Sirius. On behalf of Synth Foods, thank you again for your interest and consideration into a Synth future.


The display fades back to black, the Synth Foods logo appearing back in its place.
