I can't imagine how they'd begin to test it without having an excess of bodies to risk on this shit. Volunteers don't just come out of the woodwork. You and Felix hijaked prison ships to bolster your numbers for Chorus, right? I'm gonna put a bead out for any more ships like that going missing in the past year or so.

[ Bumping up their time table to handle a lab- higher risk, higher potential reward. ]

We weren't that far off from hitting those anyway- there are two I've been looking at. One with low visible security but a high drain on the local power grid- and one with high security and a hell of an artillery range in the back. I figure the first is more research and development and the second is more practical testing.
