Manhofer Institute

"Why doesn't Manhofer provide test dummies. And why do I have to be driving for crying out loud?!"

-PC's reaction to the broken Mach 2 time machine

The Manhofer Institute was a company most active in the mid to late 20th century responsible for scientific research and innovations developed on Pine Island in the Alpha Timeline. Alongside their rivals CCORP, they aimed to create a reliable vehicle capable of using nuclear power as fuel, but in the attempt of doing so, the Time Machine was built.

Background
Manhofer was started in the 1960s, spreading its influence on the island with the Manhofer Testing Grounds on Root Island and Manhofer West on the mainland.
