Testing Station 10 is a large Eco Lab found deep in the graben in Jabal Eifrit Al-Sharq, with standard eco lab loot. Originally this was a botanical testing station, with the purpose of finding and developing shade tolerant species that can survive underground on Arrakis, apparently with some success. The testing station has long since been abandoned by botanists, and is now home to Deserter House Soldiers, who primarily use it as a base and prepare to get offworld and escape the war.
Location
The testing station can be found deep in the graben, a chasm that can either be accessed from directly above (past a series of awnings and cliff steppes) or from the floor of the Rift.

Lore
Solido Projection
Upon entering the station, the solido projection of the old station leader plays the following message:
Welcome, honored guest. Dr. Natalia Manis here, head of Testing Station #29. My fellow station leads are constantly reminding me of what a plum assignment this station is, located as it is in this deep graben, rich in shade and sheltered from the weather. Two rarities here on ol' Arrakis. I will admit, I do feel lucky. We've developed several shade tolerant species that can survive on the floor of the graben. Naturally, this success has made station #29 a must see for our colleagues at the more... challenging... stations. If you are one of those visitors from above, please make yourself at home. I'm sure you'll find it a refreshing break from stinging sand and blistering sun.
Recordings
Deserters have left several recordings around the facility, primarily former Harkonnen soldiers
Tape 1
The first tape is found in one of the side rooms on a table.
Nikko,Surprise, I'm not dead! I just figured we'd all end up that way if we kept at this stupid war. That fat pig of a Baron doesn't give a crap about us. So I found us a way out. Not just out, but out-out as in off-world. So here's the thing -- we've got room for one more. If you're ready to leave this worm-riddled sandpit, just start spending time at that dive Teahouse in Windsack. I'll find you there.
Tape 2
The second tape is deeper into the station, on a table in a side room after a large overgrown chamber.
STILL NEEDED: Cosmetics to cover tattoos (ALL skin tones!) - Harko vendors have these Civilian footwear - Arrakeen vendors (get everyone's sizes, DON'T BUY THEM FROM ONE PLACE OR ALL AT THE SAME TIME!) Luggage - aside from the bags we'll need some civilian crap to fill them. They need to be convincing if searched by Guild Security. NO military gear! NO Harkonnen equipment! NO MISTAKES!
Tape 3
The third tape is on a towards the back room to the right after the final loot chest, near the secret door.
Elis, Please contact the Guild rep and arrange passage home for the employees whose records you'll find enclosed. This is everyone who is scheduled to rotate off-world this cycle. And no, YOUR file is not included! You still have two more years of eating dust with the rest of us! Sorry.
Tape 4
The fourth and final tape is on a table in a side room just past the final loot chest. [TODO - This is part of a contract. find which one]
Hower, Here's the details about the CHOAM drone you'll be impersonating. He had a wife and two kids on Ecaz. Sucks to be them, I guess. You'll find all the specifics in the dossier. Make sure you memorize it all so you can answer Guild Security questions without hesitation. I'll be testing your knowledge in a couple of days, so don't slack off!
