===Science and Technology===
'''ASTRO Labs''': The Applied Scientific and Technical Research Organization (ASTRO) was founded in Freedom City back in 1942 by Dr. Allan Grant. Through friends and contacts in the scientific
community and the government, Grant secured the support and financing to start his own research company. Now ASTRO Labs is the largest scientific research company in the world. The company’s Emerald City branch occupies its own office park, quite near the ECU campus.
:The Emerald City branch, under the direction of '''Dr. Eric Vornoff'''[https://www.pinterest.com/pin/183099541072540177/], has made public overtures about assisting the area’s new costumed heroes in a similar fashion. Vornoff knows well from the experiences of the Freedom City lab such assistance is an incomparable opportunity to study extraterrestrial and other advanced technologies, as well as being a public relations boon.

'''Bulloch Oceanographic Center''': Located on Emerald City’s Riverfront district, the Bulloch Center has been one of the west coast’s leading centers of sea-related research since its establishment in 1961, producing solid research and offering support for some of the field’s brightest minds. The Center’s major claim to fame is the exploits of its founder, Emerald City native Captain James “Jimmy” Bulloch.

'''Danger International''': This foundation, started by 1930s explorer and adventurer Johnny Danger, got its start-up capital from diamonds collected from a secret mine in Africa. DI began around the nucleus of Johnny’s old organization, the Jungle Patrol, and has always kept a strong interest in environmental protection issues and preserving peace in Africa. The foundation has worked with the government of Dakana many times in the past, and serves as an NGO (non-governmental organization) go-between for Dakana and the U.S. government at times. This duty includes interceding for the Dakanan consulate in Emerald City as well. Danger International has offices in the Downtown district of Emerald City, headed up by his grandson, Jake Danger.
