The '''Pharos Institute''' was a scientific organisation experimenting with advanced technology. In [[2008]] they were investigating the potential of the [[MITRE headset]] to amplify [[telekinesis|telekinetic]] energy. However the institute had been infiltrated by a [[Slitheen]], [[Korst Gogg Thek Lutiven-Day Slitheen]], who was manipulating the researchers so that the headset could be used for destruction. | The '''Pharos Institute''' was a scientific organisation experimenting with advanced technology.
