## Background

S.T.A.R. Labs stands for Scientific & Technological Advanced Research Laboratories. It is a private organization that specializes in high-end research & technology development. It was founded by Harrison Wells & Tess Morgan-Wells with the idea of creating a nationwide chain of research laboratories unconnected to the government or businesses.

There are various S.T.A.R. Labs locations but the main five complexes are located in Central City, Missouri; Star City, Washington; Metropolis, Delaware; Gotham, New Jersey & Taos, New Mexico. There are also S.T.A.R. Labs satellite laboratories located in National City, California; Ivy Town, Connecticut; Opal City, North Carolina; Dakota City, Michigan & Coral City, Florida. These facilities are much smaller than the five complexes & only have anywhere from a dozen to two dozens employees working there.
