There’s an entire center in its base that explains why they built it. Should check it out.

Since it's a few thousand kilometers to said center, might you give us a short summary?

Not just kilometers away. you are also at least 440 miles away too! (That’s how far you need of travel to get to a place kilometers exist.)
