The classified nature of the base has given rise to extensive speculation to what is going on at Schatten. Cybernetic implantations, genetic mutation projects, even a new [[Nomad]] infestation is commonly whispered when speaking of the base. The truth may be less spectacular however. The two large spaceframes made the Schatten facility an ideal and secure place to start experimenting with new ship designs. The "[[Elbe]]" class carrier is known to have been fieldtested in [[Frankfurt]], which suggests that the prototype ship was originally designed - and built - at Schatten.

[[Battleship Koblenz]] has been stationed near the base to protect it from infiltration attempts. However, the massive minefield around the base - a remnant of the [[Nomad War]] that [[Rheinland]] is in no hurry to dismantle - makes it very hard to approach.

Schatten Research Facility was constructed some time during the year 797 AS, but beyond that, not much is known. The station was heavily damaged during the Nomad War, and subsequently lay abandoned for several years. The Rheinland Military eventually salvaged a number of relatively intact components, recombining them into a single structure, much smaller then the original station. In the years since, it has served as a classified research station concerned primarily with advancing the weapons and starship technologies of the Rheinland Military, prototypes of which are usually constructed at the nearby Schatten Experimental Shipyard. As with all such stations, rumors persist that darker things happen at Schatten, but supporting evidence has yet to come to light.

When the Rheinland Civil War began, MND forces rallied at Schatten. Though the Military knows the station's location, the station's extensive defenses have thus far discouraged a direct assault.
