Game Instructions: This will begin an experiment to change the measurement of bones.

Success
An idea on the far side of sense
In Parabola, the size of things is easily lost; the large becomes small and the small becomes large. What might be built on such principles, if they were brought out of the Is-Not?
Success Instructions: This requires 300 Parabolan Research, and another 300 in your Laboratory.
- You are building a Betrayer of Measures. (Sets Experimental Object to 350 - Betrayer of Measures)
- You now have 1 x Red Science Focus
- An occurrence! Your 'Total Lab Research Required' Quality is now 300!
- An occurrence! Your 'Total Parabolan Research Required' Quality is now 300!
- An occurrence! Your 'Parabolan Methods' Quality is now 1! (hidden)
Conclusion: Complete and test the Betrayer of Measures
Failure
Too much damage!
[…] The more you imagine it, the larger you grow. You break through the roof of your reflected laboratory (a flimsy thing anyhow). […] in another moment your face is pressed against the glass sky of Parabola and your cheek crisps against its sun. […]
