Boulder Dome

Boulder Dome is a research outpost, built before the Great War in the area of today's Boulder. It's filled with all sorts of scientific equipment. A ZAX supercomputer is here, but it's been damaged and is unable to run at full power. Still, the few scientists here seem to make do, though they're somewhat tightlipped about what exactly they're working on.

The Boulder Dome was probably the place of hibernation for the important government people who were infected with the New Plague. Among them was Dr. Matthias Presper, co-creator of ZAX and the Scientific Advisor to the U.S. President before the War.

Appearances in games
The Boulder Dome did not appear nor was mentioned in any of the published games, but was to appear in the cancelled Fallout 3 project by Black Isle codenamed Van Buren. It is not certain if it will appear in any future Fallout game, but it is known that Bethesda received all Van Buren design documents from Interplay and might re-use some of the background from them.
