The mycoid weapon was taken to Klatt Enterprises in Alnath for testing. It was hoped that the bioweapon could be used to attack Thargoid hyperdrives and incapacitate them, stopping the Thargoids from traveling and ending the war in a single stroke. Test results on both Thargoid technology and two captured Thargoid specimens confirmed that the mycoid was debilitating to both, causing paralysis and extensive degeneration. At this point, several researchers left the project in protest over the use of the living specimens for weapon experimentation. However, others believed the Thargoids only understood destruction and would stop at nothing to exterminate [[humans]]. Those who had seen, first hand, the effect of their weapons – seen the destruction, the chaos, the bodies – wanted them to suffer. Thus they considered it a moral obligation to use the bioweapon to prevent a catastrophic loss of human life by the Thargoids.<ref name=":0" /><ref name="Klatt">[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/383412-INRA-is-ingame?p=6037149&viewfull=1#post6037149 Frontier Forums: INRA is ingame (Post #420)]</ref>

Among these individuals was [[Salvation|Caleb Wycherley]], VP of research for [[Azimuth Biochemicals]] (a contractor working with INRA on bioweapon development) who suspected nothing less than genocide could stop the Thargoid threat.

They built some testing apparatus and a secure enclosure. It's shaped like an octagonal pit. Recovered security reports indicate that the Thargoid specimen made several escape attempts, the most recent of which results in a number of deaths. The specimen appeared to be in poor physical health, but undoubtedly alive. The specimen was highly resilient and seemed to be able to withstand severe physical trauma, even to the point of losing limbs. Chemical and biological weapons were tested on the specimen.<ref>[https://canonn.science/codex/stack/ INRA settlement Stack - Canonn] </ref>
