The "Unsupervised Science" side quest in Control Resonant will have you searching for FBC testing facilities around Manhattan and solving puzzles to shut them down.

There are six testing facilities in total, and they feature two different puzzles. The first puzzle involves you transforming items into soda dispensers and placing them into yellow squares. The second puzzle requires you to swap charges between red and blue power cores for 60 seconds.

To complete the quest, you need to shut down each FBC testing facility and go into the final threshold. Additionally, this will put you one step closer to earning the "Threshold Researcher" achievement.

Here's where to find all the "Unsupervised Science" FBC testing facility locations in Control Resonant with tips on how to solve their puzzles.

There are two different puzzles at the FBC testing facilities: one involving soda dispensers and one involving power cores.

For the testing facilities involving soda dispensers (Downtown, Evacuation Zone, and West Incursion Zone), you'll enter a large room with a variety of items: a soda dispenser, a sink, a stove, and a copy machine. The room itself is separated into sections via yellow tape, and there are yellow squares scattered across the room.

If you pick up an item and move it into another section, it'll transform into a different item. Luckily, the item transformations follow the same cycle: stove ⇔ sink ⇔ copy machine ⇔ soda dispenser ⇔ stove . The transformations work both ways, so if you move into another section and your stove turns into a sink, if you move back it'll turn back into a stove.
