So you stumbled into the Secure Construction Area for no reason. This is the room currently housing the Gateway Project. This expensive piece of equipment can be used to send the crew on missions to acquire valuable objects. Nanotrasen wants the most important people to make use of this device for science.

At the start of the round, a random time limit is set for the gateway. Once the timer is up, if there are any possible exits the gateway will be able to send people to far away lands; these areas are known as away missions. The gateway needs to be properly powered to transport people, but not to search for another gateway.

Requires Gateway access to enter.

If you want to go on an away mission through the gateway, you're going to need some supplies. First among these will be weapons and medical supplies, as what's on the other side won't always be friendly. Internals are also a good idea.

All away missions have a gateway of their own. Entering this gateway will take you back to the station's gateway. If you use a multitool on the away mission's gateway then the gateways will be synchronised, meaning that if you go through one gateway you will always land at the other one.
