This lab houses the development of hi-tech devices including weapons, batteries, drills, and circuit boards. Starts with several tools and items usable for early level research. Requires Research Lab access to enter.

Protolathe

Similar to an autolathe, you load raw materials such as glass and metal sheets (but not other objects) into it for creating stuff. All the menus and other manipulation commands are in the R&D console.
