Lab Notes

Dr. Barnhoff had her say, and it sounds like we're going to pull back the veil and release some CBMs for civilian use. I can't say I'm upset about it. As long as the actual manufacture of bioplastic stays proprietary for a while, I think most of us really want to see this stuff get somewhere where people can benefit from it.

"We've established a new research team specifically to look into reverse engineering the properties of sample CC-09-R1. See notes prior to [REDACTED: See XEDRA-SILOPROTOCOL or speak to an administrator for assistance]. They managed to steal Gloria Barnhoff away from Veridian Dynamics, it's a real coup."

"Dr. Barnhoff already has an idea for how we could recreate some of the self-organizing properties of CC-09-R1. Trouble is, it's pure silliness: it uses a molecular lattice of californium and a particle accelerator to basically 3D print certain types of molecules. We had a good laugh, but she just stared at us.",

"Admin approved Barnhoff's request. According to my math, the californium she requested alone is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. We're going to start work on a prototype fabricator tomorrow.

The first nanofab prototype is promising. There's a major clogging problem that keeps us from making more than a few micrograms of material, but that was enough to conceptualize the plastic Dr. Barnhoff wants. Amazingly, Admin has approved ANOTHER sample of californium to replace the clogged lattice while we figure out how to fix the first. I'm not sure there is supposed to be this much californium on Earth. I might see how far my security clearance gets me in learning what's going on here.
