upsides to making a portal to heaven  
    to   build  the   factory  there    
  
                                          
 first of  all, real estate:  the  highly 
 fractalized  geometry  (not  proven  but 
 likely  to  be the  case) implies almost 
 unlimited room; even  if the portal tech 
 would  be  stolen,  chances  of  running 
 into  a competitor  is  close  to  none, 
                                          
 secondly,  the  resources:  heavens  own 
 alchemical  properties  (proof   exist!) 
 makes  most  base  materials  easily and 
 readily  available. once  the  molecular 
 movement  patterns  are mapped out,  any 
 compound   can   be   created  virtually 
 without                            cost. 
                                          
                                          
  
   downsides  to  making a  portal to   
   heaven to build the factory  there   
  
                                          
 current  portal  tech takes  some energy 
 to  hold open,  which isn't a problem in 
 itself. test results  however  has shown 
 that without an  active tether, heaven's 
 time flow  breaks  down completely. even 
 a  momentary  fluctuation of the  portal 
 would    render   all   remote    assets 
 practically  lost.  much  care  must  be 
 taken  to   maintain  portal  stability. 
 (one  option  could  be several portals)
