I'm reporting from the New York system, my current location is [color=#FF0000]classified even to the Order High Command. I need to be sure in my privacy. However, I have some news for you.
Security at Zone-21 is getting higher day by day. Liberty invested enormous amount of credits into this project: Melbourne Defense Facility
Facility itself is supported by six heavily armed weapon platforms with mixed type of the weapons against any type of ship. To be honest, I barely managed to bypass the security and platforms. At this moment I'm on safe and secure location.
One thing that I forgot to mention in my earlier report is about project we lead on the Kodiak Research Station.
Uploading necessary information(s) on Kodiak Station:
Quote:Kodiak Research Complex was constructed in 803 A.S., as a large fully equipped and self-sufficient facility led by the Liberty Security Force. The station was initially built inside an old ice asteroid, to study what the Slomon K'Hara and the Daam-K'vosh left after the brief Nomad war. Most of the artifacts left over by these races were never studied completely or deeply by any organization beside The Order. The Valhalla Project was also restarted, although no details have ever been made public.
Until 817 A.S, the location and existence of the facility was classified. Only high ranking military officers and some members of the government knew about the complex. Punishment for disclosure of any information related to the station was long term imprisonment on Prison Fairbanks in Alaska. Nowadays, the base is more well known among naval officers, but is still secret to the public and access to the station is still heavily restricted to LSF and Navy personnel only.
Kodiak Research Complex is equipped with a large range of technologies and sections to run tests in multiple different environments. It also has the facilities to manufacture some prototype ships based on new research designs. The station has all the necessary equipment to survive on its own for more than six months, thus creating less suspicion about supply ships heading to unknown locations.
Project Name: HBN-403 (Human Body Nanomachine)
Project Lead: Doctor J-Wilkins
Project Supported By: Liberty Government, LSF Director (Anna Brown)
Nanomachine is the general term for a machine ranging in size from one micrometer (one-thousandth of a millimeter) to one nanometer (one-millionth of a millimeter) using MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) technology. An example of a nanomachine would be a protein aggregate resembling the structure of a man-made motor using biomolecules such as DNA, proteins, and resins as parts.
First-generation nanomachines:
In February 819, during the Alaska incident, doctor J-Wilkins injected nanomachines into Anna Brown's body, which included: a nanomachine to supply and administer adrenalin, nutrients, sugar, nootropics, and benzedrine; a nanomachine to recharge a Codec's battery. Nanomachines also made it possible to restrict the host's actions, such as shooting a gun, and to stimulate the host's muscle fibers using ciliary motility. They could be manipulated to reduce the effects of disease, though they were unable to directly administer specific medicines. These nanomachines could also be recharged via a person's body heat, although they will end up lost if the person injected was bleeding. The first-generation nanomachines, however, have a serious side effect: If they are injected into a person, they also have a chance with having a negative interference with someone's heart, especially if the person injected had suffered from rapid aging, as was what happened to Anna Brown.
The project didn't stop here, we made some modifications and as a result we had our first test subject.
Second-generation nanomachines:
Two months later, the second-generation nanomachines were injected into the body of Johnathan Toledo, who successfully carried out a solo infiltration. These nanomachines were more advanced and their simultaneous function as network terminals had been further enhanced. They also handled tasks such as remotely hacking into terminals and nodes connected to Liberty Shell's operational support network, communication inside the body, the dynamic creation of hallucinations through intracranial nanomachines, and the checking and remote management of VS (vital signs). The number of people with nanomachines implanted had also increased, and almost everyone involved with the LSF or under their direct control had nanomachines implanted in their bodies. The Codec during this time was also primarily made up of these nanomachines, and users when in communication with others using the Codec also appeared outwardly silent due to speaking in a nano-based language. One interesting medical function of this generation was that they could effectively replace the use of bandages.
The nanomachines were still limited to very important tasks. Nanomachines functioned as a fail-safe system between the president of the Liberty and the nuclear launch button as well as VIP-communication system between the president and his Secret service detail known as LSF.
In addition to the multitude of military nanomachines there existed a wide variety of medical and commercial nanomachines that were available to the public.
Doctor J-Wilkins underwent nanomachine treatment for her terminal cancer. Although unable to heal his completely, they had the effect of stopping or greatly slowing down the progress of the cancer allowing him to lead a normal life. David Hale was equipped with a variety that allowed him to rapidly heal from any injury including gun shots and drowning. However, a flaw with the nanomachines is that they need to be continuously operating in order to benefit the user in its healing properties: If the user of these nanomachines shut down and end up reactivating around the same time the user experiences a mortal wound, the nanomachines, while still maintaining their function of rapid healing, will cause unbearable pain to the user in the process.
A "fat burning" nanomachine also existed according to a 819. TV commercial, which supposedly amplified a person's workout, though the importance of remaining hydrated was also stressed.
