In 400 A.S., the Kusari government began offering incentives for corporations to move to the Kyushu system and set up offices and business there. Taking advantage of the offer, Samura Industries began construction on Nansei Research Complex, which finished later the same year. The research facility was designed primarily to study antimatter and antimatter based weaponry, using the solar panel arrays along the station to utilise the vast amounts of cheap energy available from the proximity of Kyushu's star.
Nansei has several metric tons of antimatter in storage for research purposes, and the storage facilities are often a favourite target of attacks by the Blood Dragons and the Golden Chrysanthemums, and has led to the Battleship Nagumo being stationed nearby to oversee both the defence of the Tau-29 jump gate and of Nansei itself. The consequences for the Kyushu system were the Blood Dragons ever to succeed in destroying the storage containers would be disastrous, though Samura insists that the antimatter is heavily protected and poses no risks.
