The Simulator Area in room [[E016]] at [[440 Albert]] was located behind the [[Interlock]] and next to the external access to the [[Power Box]] of the [[Hawking II]] near the [[Junkyard]]. The simulator area also had a dedicated door opening onto Bay Street from which [[Simulators]] could enter without having to pass through [[Mission Control]]. During the [[Mission]], the Simulator Area would be partitioned off from the Planetary surface by use of [[Paintings]] and from the [[Storage Modules]] by use of room dividers.

==Equipment==
Simulator Equipment consisted of a large table constructed by [[Kevan Adlard]], which bore several computers and monitors. The table was notable, as it was the only table at the [[OCESS]] with a sliding keyboard tray.

Adlard also developed a camera switching system using light switches, giving the Simulators their own dedicated CCTV system.

Adlard installed a whiteboard, which was used for planning disasters, and posting the schedule of events that Simulators were planning to instigate.

==Noise Pollution==
The location of the simulator area directly next to the main control room of the [[habitat]] meant that [[astronauts]] were often able to hear the simulators if they forgot to maintain complete silence. These noises often prompted speculation on the existence of [[Hab Gnomes]], though that term was incorrectly used at the time.

Notably, noise pollution from the simulator area caused [[Stefan De Young]] to go insane, claiming that he could hear martians speaking in his head during the [[2004-05]] mission. His antics were captured on video by [[Songyan Cai]] and published as the [[Chronicles of the Insane Astronaut]]. No copies of this video remain.
