Hence, to avoid attracting attention due to the near impossibility of constructing a space station or planetary outpost that could go undetected by universe-scanning sensors of the Confederation, the decision was made to acquire a section of a distant space station originally intended to house a powerful deep space telescope. It was there, in secrecy, that the experiment would be conducted.
