The loss of life, however, was minimal due to an emergency evacuation exercise coincidentally being in effect at the time of the attack. ()
==Function==
It hosted much of the RMN's most sensitive R&D programs because Gryphon received far less commercial traffic than Manticore or Sphinx. As a result, even though it was the smallest of the SKM's space stations, it was actually the busiest. ()
Furthermore, to assist in development of new technologies, Weyland was the site of the Manufacturing and Prototyping Command led by Rear Admiral Warren Trammell. ()
