Science Hub

The Science Hub is an item used in the Science Lab.

Appearance
Primarily a light bluish-grey with darker edging around each component, the Science Hub consists of various equipment mounted on an octagonal base. A console with red and green buttons, a joystick and a footplate is found next to a similar control panel (but for the red button) on the back of a protective shield. Flanking each of these can be found a trapezoidal block with orangey-red tubing running into them. On the other side of these blocks is a platform with a large, round silver basin, and a piece of equipment resembling a tesla coil mounted on another platform with a foot plate.

In the centre of the base is a hole, with a brass cylinder inside. A large spherical structure is held over this by more orangey-red tubing, straddling the base by dark mounts. On the top of this is a dark cylinder, on one side is a cuboidal box, and on the other is another piece of tubing, this time dark bluish-grey, connecting the sphere to the main console.
