Joint Dark Energy Mission Facility

The Joint Dark Energy Mission facility was a S.H.I.E.L.D laboratory opperated under the auspices of Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S.

It was founded in order to study possible uses for the Tesseract, primarily renewable energy and potential avenues of weaponisation.

In 2012, the facility was seriously damaged when Loki stole the Tesseract and kidnapped a number of staff members, including Eric Selvig and Clint Barton.

Work was begun on rebuilding the facility, but this was not completed before Bobbi Morse brought down S.H.I.E.L.D, and the site was abandonned. Due to the sensitive nature of the research which had been done there, Pepper Potts arranged for the site was purchased by Stark Industries in order to avoid any remaining research falling into HYDRA hands.
