	Black Mesa Research Facility
		The facility was primarily funded by the U.S. military, and it was mutually understood by the Department of Defence and the first Administrator of the facility that the main objective was to give the United States a technological advantage in warfare.
		Research into radioactive decay, particle acceleration and gauss guns (electromagnetic propulsion weapons) led to the development of a ‘tau cannon’, which generated taus (very heavy electron-like particles) and used gauss technology to accelerate them to supersonic velocities, their energy sufficient to blast through walls.
		Some researchers believed that if the properties of the crystals were better understood then they could be synthesised on Earth, allowing the development of compact teleportation devices, at a lesser construction cost to enormous displacement machinery at Black Mesa.

	Black Mesa Research Facility - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Black Mesa facility is built over several decommissioned missile silo complexes constructed during the 1950s, which have been converted into a vast civilian institute for the research of every conceivable scientific discipline.
		Black Mesa is apparently self-sufficient, housing its own ventilation, plumbing, sewage, and power generation systems including a hydroelectric dam and multiple types of electrical generators and reactors.
		The Black Mesa facility itself is badly damaged during the resonance cascade and the resulting Xen invasion, and sustains severe damage during the military occupation.

	Black Mesa East - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Black Mesa East is a resistance base, located in the outskirts of City 17, opposite to a dam, its generating station, and its reservoir, and right next to the abandoned mining town of Ravenholm.
		Black Mesa East is set several floors underground, and includes many facilities that make it self-sufficient, such as its own power generators, kitchens, recreational areas, and most importantly, Eli's lab, where he is constantly refining the teleportation technology salvaged from the Black Mesa Research Facility.
		Black Mesa East is directly connected to Ravenholm via a tunnel that has been barricaded off since the shelling of Ravenholm took place, to prevent zombies and headcrabs from entering the facility.

	Black Mesa Research Facility - Valve Developer Community
		For convenience, the industrial portion of Black Mesa (near the end of Half-Life and Opposing Force) is listed separately.
		The facility is well-ventilated, so vent sections can be used to get past blockades (and tend to be full of headcrabs).
		The mesa that the facility seems to be built into has a relatively awkward shape, which allows for sheer rock faces to serve as barriers and stone archways to add to the atmosphere.
