The Engineering Closet in the Hawking III is an aptly named closet off of the Interlock. Approximately 4 feet deep by 3 feet wide, the closet is as tall as the rest of the hab and is entirely taken up by 8 wooden boards forming what would be shelves if they were connected by boards. This is because, due to Fire Safety Procedure, a room less than 1 metre along its smallest direction cannot hold students at any time. In the Beta reality the engineering closet theoretically holds the vital machines that keep the habitat going, but for a long time in Alpha reality it most holds old video cards and a box of what is rumoured to be 128 km of fiber-optic cable. This ceased to be true when Bryce Storey and Samuel Baltz began a project to clean up the engineering closet, during which time they attached a shelf to the top of the closet's structure, boarded up holes to make it look airtight, procured a ShopVac and used Aluminium Tape to make it look like an air compression system, and found a few boxes with lots of wires to stick in the top. Mikaela Stiver also designed and built a small door to cover up the indent outside of the engineering closet's power box. This is most of what is currently in the engineering closet.
