Station 51

&nbsp Station 51 is a space platform controlled and secured completely by the World League of Nations. It's name is a joke based off of a top-secret military operated by the United States of America through the 21st century (old dating system).

Station 51's responsibility is the construction of Baeder Drive systems and because of that, it has the highest level of security in the world.

Employees who work on Station 51 are kept isolated from all non-employees for the duration of their stay, subjected to random searches of themselves and belongings as well as security protocols that change weekly, not to mention thorough censorship of all communication out from the station (which is rerouted to appear as if it has come from somewhere else).

Employees sent to Station 51 are not allowed to take any personal belongings. Indeed, rumor has it that they are shipped in naked and subject to a 'full' cavity search before being allowed beyone the docking facility. No one has confirmed or denied this.

Even with these restrictions, there is no shortage of willing workers. Some seek a chance to work at the cutting edge of science, some wish an escape from 'normal' life, while others enjoy the substantial pay and benefits that come with working on Station 51 (and for staying quiet once employment has concluded). Many try and use their time on Station 51 as a springboard to political success.

It is rumored, but again, no one will confirm or deny, that once an employee's Station 51 contract has concluded, that they are mind-wiped and their memories of Station 51 removed.
