Medical Research Base MIR-14, an abandoned settlement used to perform medical experiments covertly. Its location was found by decrypting the communication logs from 3 listening posts and then triangulating the right system.1. Col 285 Sector LU-M c8-6 A

The settlement itself differs not as much as one would assume, given the specific nature of the settlement's mission. Obscuring their operation's purpose seems to be the norm out here. It has a Data Uplink Point, which has quite valuable data and 4 Settlement Comms Log Uplinks, which are accessible via Data Link Scanner.
4 downloadable logs:
CANNOT GET OUT 1/4
When we first ran tests on the compound we thought it could be used as a mood inhibitor to help tackle anxiety and other mental afflictions. Early results were very promising. But we were so wrong.
CANNOT GET OUT 2/4
Some of the test subjects had a very different reaction to the treatment. It seemed to heighten their aggressive tendencies, some manifesting this in self harm or vocal outbursts. But in a small percentages it turned them into monsters, capable of the most horrific violence.
CANNOT GET OUT 3/4
When the company found out they marketed it as a success, selling the research to the military. Under military control we were forced to keep working on this new programme. To create a serum that could be given to soldiers and other military personnel to make them into better killing machines.
Those of us that refused were “reassigned” as our new masters put it. We knew what that meant. Gods help me I wasn’t strong enough to be one of them.
CANNOT GET OUT 4/4
I can’t go on with this mockery of science. I wanted to help people, not turn human beings into rabid killing machines.
This is my confession and a warning to others. The military will stop at nothing to get an edge over their enemies. Even if that means destroying thousands of lives in the process.
Tonight I released the test subjects into the settlement. I’m not asking for forgiveness. I knew what that would mean. Everyone… dead… or worse. I can hear them hunting for me, but it’s too late. It’s all coming down.
I can’t afford to let anything from this place get out into the hands of any power. I’ve destroyed all the data I can find and my final act will be to vent the settlement, open it up to space. That should kill everyone one left alive in here. This cannot get out. This cannot get out.
This is deeply disturbing. This unending hell that mankind unleashes upon themselves, again and again. Experimenting on ourselves, watching as people wither, fear and scream in pain. Watching, being actively involved in perverting this fragile and mortal self that we all are. Watching and being the one to torture these poor souls, injecting them and then - watching them.
Whoever the person writing this log was, he couldn't just watch anymore. He couldn't suppress his humanity as so many others do. His actions were directly barbaric, though still full of heart. A peak in brutality shortly before a big silence. I just hope this data is completely destroyed as he or she said. Though having other witnessable disasters in mind, I highly doubt that it's more than just a drop in the ocean. I am not naive. I know wherever these projects get stomped in the ground, 2 others pop out of nowhere. Whoever conducts these experiments might even be an ally, figuring out how to fight other allies in case they stop being one. We are fighting, always. And whenever there's a fight, both sides lose, in a way.
