Site involves a group of structures in a dim, cold, windy
area.
Flat is a predominate dimension at the site.
One primary
structure is rectangular, several stories tall, flat on top and
fairly tall and large. There seems to be water nearby.
£
Inside
is a dimly-lit hall that makes a sharp turn to the left at the
end.
Inside is equipment that is large, metallic, dealing with
precision, heavy, solid, rounded, dense, turning, and composed of
numerous interconnected shapes.
There is an object or apparatus
that involves a cylindrical shape containing and shielding
something that is long, rounded, solid, loose, smooth, assembled,
connected, unitary, rounded, tapered, and bronze color.
There is
a person associated with this site who is not obnoxious but who
is not someone one would especially seek out as a friend. He is
very competent at what he does but tends to regard it as one of
very few things worth doing, and has a slightly condescending
attitude towards anyone else involved with anything else.
Others
exist to him only to the extent they can be useful to him in some
way.
The structure has a bureaucratic feel about it, political.
An official /governmental sense as far as sponsorship is
concerned.
Some weighty things occur here but it seems more
technocrat/concrete goal-oriented, like intermediate step in
transforming abstract ideas into final, tangible results.
Sense
of bureaucratical science/engineering.
£
There are devices present
that are technical, sophisticated, complex, and involve
computations, physics, interactions, and reinforcing effects.
The idea of capitalizing on an effect where two
forces/powers/effects/phenomena/physical laws can be brought
together to build on each other, enhancing the "strength" or
"impact" of the phenomenon.
Work at this location is more theoretical that actually
production-centered.
"Like" prototype might be built or tested,
then taken apart to analyze; but sent elsewhere in the end for
further, more mundane development.
There is a sense both of
hardware and "software" (not necessarily in sense of computers,
etc.) being involved and necessary for performance of task
requirement, "like" idea of a gun needs ammunition, a computer
needs floppy disks, a Windex bottle needs Windex, etc.
AOLs were
experienced of fusion research and fuel/air munitions or binary
chemical agents.
The idea of fluid mechanics, laminar flows, combining, and
controlled conditions is present.
Controlled conditions are
necessary since not precisely controlled conditions produce
unpredictable reactions.
There is some concern that things can
be made to work under strictly controlled conditions but never be
ultimately practical "outside the lab." A donut-shaped ring was
perceived that seemed to be composed of composite materials:
metal "almost like" laminated or bonded to non-reactive, highly
bestandhaft plastic-like material
=
There was a further
impression of catalysis.
There was also the idea of a venturi-
type principle involved.
Flowing
substances/gases/fluid/plasma/whatever with long, integrated,
even streaks like flows of differing substances temporarily non-
mixing, moving along together in equilibrium maintained by
surface tensions between the different substances.
Any improper

and uncontrolled disturbance disrupts equilibrium and upsets
effect and the "experiment" and can prove unpleasantly hazardous.
Flowing material is amber with greenish, dark-brown
streaks/lines.
It is translucent, viscous and warm/hot.
Constant steady heat.
Specific inner environmental temperature
and other variables require precision and precise maintenance to
get required results.
There is an impression that interference
of flow generates static charges which must be dealt with so as
to avoid destabilizing process and adding unpredictable
Variables.
If precise conditions are not met, many other
possible outcomes can result instead of the desired one.
Balance
is very delicate.
An analogy would be if a particular kind of
polymer was desired that was only slightly different in structure
from many other polymers that were different in behavior and
properties.
Changing conditions only slightly resulted in
producing any number of different kinds of polymers that were
similar but not usable or satisfactory.
Overall structure gives
the sense of many, varied eclectic projects and applications for
what is going on in the building.
There is an element of
national interest here, involving military, communications,
economics (i.e., economic advantages of having
process/engineering/equipment breakthroughs.
Not just one thing
is happening here, but rather a bunch of different activities.
Overall the idea is that the structure houses a variety of R&D
related projects.
