Experiment run by Dr Lee. The assumption 'Scorpions are just land lobster' was subject of much discussion. Dr Lee wanted to prove this fast reproducing, meaty arachnid, could be a source of food for prospectors in colder environments.

Field guide

Due to Prospectors having an extreme aversion to dealing with these enlarged scorpions, this line of research had it's funding cut. Somewhat suspiciously, despite the project being canceled, a biological containment unit was discovered planet-side. Seeding the large scorpions on Icarus. Dr Lee is currently under investigation.

"This doesn't taste like lobster. **** are they thinking?!"
