Labs 1-3 are small-sized, while Lab 4 is mid-sized. They are each highly-modular and can be reserved for short or mid-term projects that don't require unusual configuration or much equipment beyond the standard. | ||

The Astrometrics lab is dedicated to the study of stars and other objects, such as stellar systems, nebulae and planets, although it can seamlessly work similar to the Stellar Cartography as well. The lab has several workstations and large, curved wall display, but it is also equipped with holoemitters and localised gravity controls for less confined observations. | The Astrometrics lab is dedicated to the study of stars and other objects, such as stellar systems, nebulae and planets, although it can seamlessly work similar to the Stellar Cartography as well.

The Stellar Cartography lab is large, cylinder shaped room that spans a few decks in height. The workstations located in the middle, all walls of the lab operate as a large display. In this lab, the scientists study the sensor recordings and compare them to the existing maps. These efforts allows them to discover new stars, objects and anomalies, as well as to update the maps for navigation, reporting them frequently to the Starfleet Command. | The Stellar Cartography lab is large, cylinder shaped room that spans a few decks in height.

Despite their location away from the Science Centre, these facilities are used similarly and in similar frequency as those in the Science Centre. The off-site location allows different configurations, sizes and the usage of other nearby amenities. | ||

Reserved for the study of materials that may endanger the researchers, the crew or the ship if handled under normal circumstances, the lab has several protective equipment in place. Its deckplating and bulkheads are enforced and it has an independent, isolated life-support system, isolation shields supported by batteries in case of a power outage, and small cargo transporters. The lab is located near the main shuttlebay in case the hazardous material cannot be transported or is discovered on a shuttle. The lab crew have a selection of hazmat suits and other PPE, and the lab can be divided in sections by shields and blast walls to protect the crew. Additionally, the lab has holoprojectors, allowing it to be operated by a holographic crew in case the material is too hazardous for typical researchers. | ||
