Research Station Delta

The Imperium set up Research Station Delta at Retinae when that world was still part of the Imperium, and has continued to maintain it through a formal agreement with the Zhodani Consulate, though that agreement is subject to periodic diplomatic protests. The Retinae system is connected to Imperial space by way of a naval courier route through Thanber (Spinward Marches 0717) and the research station is administered from Frenzie (Spinward Marches 1116) in the Vilis Subsector.
