Exterior view of the facility.

The Nishina Research Station is a research station on Freya III, Freya System. It was founded in 2326.

Due to the influence of an experiment on Artifact XI, the player will unwillingly switch between two different realities during the quest Entangled. Once the Probe Control Unit is acquired, you are able to use the unit to enter distortions and choose which reality to be in to shut down the experiment.

Reality 3

A secret ending is to complete the experiment yourself. It will require you to flip back and forth between realities to access the Lab Computer in the Control Room. All switches should be left on.

1. Initialization - Should already be complete
2. Degaussing - Will display a random number of switches. You will need to get back to the outside of the control room, in the same reality you started in, and turn off then back on the listed power switches. Do the same for the other universe
3. Frequency Calibration - There is a slate in the control room and a slate on Rafael in the normal universe. Both universes need to be calibrated to an intake of 34GHz. This can be achieved with 40GHz in the normal universe and 24GHz in the destroyed one.
4. Primary Calibration - Near the front of the machine, you will need to hit the Primary Calibration switch in both universes.

The screen will flicker and merge both universes, saving all members.
