==== Phobos Project Log: 24 January 2064 ====

Fear. Fear is the most basic human emotion.  It can spur people to action, make them flee, or reduce them to quivering wrecks.  If fear could be harnessed, just think of what we could do.  No more wars - the troops would be too frightened to leave the barracks, let alone enter combat.  Amp up the fear of environmental problems, and they'd disappear overnight.

That's the goal of Phobos.  Using brain scanning technology, and adaptive [DATA CORRUPT] can create a new kind of weapon which works out the deepest fears of the target, and turns it against them.  Phobos has actual physical presence, seemingly acting outside the laws of physics due to [DATA CORRUPT] programmable, and can be set towards any goal.  If you want to amp up a sense of nervousness within a business to prevent them pursuing some undesirable goal, that's possible.  If you want to infiltrate a criminal organisation, and leave them paralysed with fear while the police scoop them up, that's possible too.

With UCCNZFJ Darklight funding, we can develop this into the next generation of enforcement and deterrent tools, ensuring a stable and lasting peace.

==== Phobos Project Log: 15 March 2067 ====

What happens when you take away someone's fear?  Well, if you do it to someone with a strong sense of duty, they hold to it and do their job perfectly.  The problem occurs when you do it to someone with the slightest shred of doubt - or the slightest glimmer of anger.  So far as we can tell, what happens is that when their anger overpowers their duty, they don't have any fear stopping them from doing something stupid.

Analysis of Gamma site following the containment leak shows that one of the guards' anti-fear medication was switched out for a placebo - apparently he'd been having an affair with another's husband, enough to make them angry, and enough for them to act and damn the consequences.  Well, you have one of the most heavily trained units in the world, who've been stuck inside and itching for a fight, and you have the perfect target for the Kappa strain, and once they start to worry that containment is breaking and the rest might get out... well, whatever we've made, it does its job well.

We have all seen the feed from Tau Leyti.  We will have no choice but to release it to the public soon.  While this attempt has failed, it has acted as a valuable proof of concept.  The weak point of the T-L project lay in the need for multiple repopulation and resupply runs.  If the needs of a colony, and enough people to sustain it viably, could be sent in a single fleet, which could be confirmed Phobos-free.

Aside from the Phobos-related aspects, Project Salvation can be made public, which should allow access to the additional funding required.
