Testing Station 142 is a large Eco Lab found in Eastern Shield Wall, with standard eco lab loot. Originally this was a geology testing station, with the purpose of exploring the seismic and volanic history and outlook of the area. The testing station has long since been abandoned by the geologists and is now home to Sand Flies, and is the den of the legendary Red Scorpion

Lore

Solido Projection

Upon entering the station, the solido projection of the old station leader plays the following message:

Greetings, from Hasso Serafin, director of Desert Testing Station #142.
The mission of Station 142 is to explore this planet's seismic and volcanic history and outlook.
We are further responsible for running extensive mineral surveys intended to locate potentially valuable resources.
This location was selected as being not only ideal for deep seismic probes, but also because it rests on several rich mineral deposits,
Which can be tapped for use by this and other stations, thereby avoiding the high cost and long delays associated with space transport.

Recordings

The inhabitants have left several recordings around the facility

Had enough of the toil and hazards of Spice harvesting?
Tired of grinding your fingers to the bone so the nobles may feast while your family starves?
Isn't it time some of that hard-won wealth is returned to you and yours?
The Sand Flies are a brotherhood of honest and loyal dunemen like you, who are simply sick and tired of breaking our backs for the wealthy while our loved ones suffer and die
Join us, and help to share the spoils of Dune amongst those who risk their lives to harvest it!
Dunemen, be a force for change! Join the Sand Flies today! In the name of the people!

The third tape location

The third tape is on a table in a side loot room, highlighted in green light

Hauer, We had a good thing going here, but you pushed it too far. You started to believe your own speeches.
I thought you were smarter than that.
Well, I was in Harko yesterday and I overheard a pair of Harkonnen officers talking about the movement and mentioning the Red Scorpion.
Not the Sand Flies, but the Red Scorpion specifically!
I know you like the attention. And now you're going to reap what you sowed.
If you're lucky, the House Troopers will find you before the horde of solari-hungry CHOAM mercs.
Me, I'm going back to the Smugglers. Good luck, Red Scorpion.
