Vault-Tec: Among the Stars

Vault-Tec: Among the Stars is a location in the Nuka-World Amusement Park.

Background
The attraction was opened as a way to attract customers to purchase spots in vaults. However, Vault Tec: Among the Stars terminal entries and hidden monitoring rooms made it clear that the ride was also used to experiment on visitors and staff. J. Hodgson, the Operations Engineer for the attraction, reported that a visitor collapsed, before reporting headaches, nosebleeds, memory loss, and abnormal behavior by guests. C. Grunner, the Theta Radiation technician involved in the experiment, grew paranoid after suspecting that Dr. Bateman had piped the radiation into the monitoring room. Grunner then locked the doors to the monitoring room, before R. Langston, the Sublinimal Suggestions technician burst in to warn him of the bombs. Langston was then shot by Grunner, who then commit suicide.

Layout
Vault Tec: Among the Stars is presented as an imagining of a vault that would be built on other planets. Visitors walk through rooms displaying the concept of the vault, but are subject to Theta Radiation and subliminal messages as part of the experiments run by Vault-Tec. Upon entrance of the building, a pathway through an outline of a vault door leads to a display of the surface of a planet, with an animatronic wearing a Spacesuit Costume. The lights and tour dialogue activate automatically when visitors approach the exhibits, or can be activated with buttons throughout the attraction. The walkway continues to a real vault entrance, marked "Arcturus I" instead of a vault number such as Vault 111. Many doors inside the vault lead to concrete walls, as the vault is just a concept. On the pathway to the atrium, visitors are already subjected to radiation, blurring their vision. Visitors travel along the second-floor of the atrium, where trees are planted for dwellers to "relax in an Earth-like setting." The pathway goes down some stairs to a private residential suite, with a sliding door on the left that leads to a generator with a fusion core inside, as well as a monitoring area with the Project Lead Terminal. A hole in the wall is a way into the reactor room, which is dimly lit and full of radiation. The visitors' path continues past a hydroponics room, but green mist is visibly being sprayed into the air of the visitor walkway. The door on the right leads into the hydroponics room, while the door on the left leads into the vault's research area, with a few chemistry stations and science supplies. A window and door frame provides a look into the reactor room. The final display contains large models of planets, as well as the body of a trader. The final stretch is similar to the entrance to the attraction, and leads to a large room on the lower level, where visitors can exit through the door on the left, or take an elevator to the upper level where the entrance to the walkway is. The large room on the lower level also has a door that leads to an employee only area, where the Operations Terminal is located. Another sliding door on the left of the employee area is to another monitoring room, with the Experiment 002 and Experiment 004 Observation Terminals. A hallway from the employee area goes to the lower level of the atrium, where visitors cannot enter.
