Area 404 – Facebook New Hardware Test Lab

Now I’m more convinced than ever that Facebook it’s really something more than a big ‘social network’, after their big project called ‘Aquila’ which really was amazing, I’ve said and I’ll keep saying there’s nothing impossible for Facebook. Apparently now they have created a big hardware lab called ‘Area 404’ which will be used to build their own gadgets, isn’t cool? Hardware lab is located on California and it is 2000m2 square meters and has some big machines on it. Also, even CEO of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg it’s not allowed to enter there for security reasons.

Mark Zuckerberg's status on Facebook :


The new lab is the size of half a football field and is filled with everything from a 5-axis water jet that can cut through steel and granite to a 9-axis mill-turn lathe. It's even got an electron microscope and a CT scanner that will let engineers examine components for failure analysis. All this gear was so heavy that we had to remove the floor of the building and drill down to the bedrock to put in new foundation.


And here is the video Inside ‘Area 404’ Hardware Lab

I was reading about this a few days ago Area 404 – Facebook New Hardware Test Lab

It's crazy that only a few people that now work for facebook can have access to certain areas, and that doesn't even include Zuckerburg lol. It has to feel a littl weird that you buy an enormous warehouse for cutting edge Research and Development but you can't access some of it haha Area 404 – Facebook New Hardware Test Lab

Yet another shameless marketing tactic by Facebook for something that doesn't really help anyone at all. All the people that have access to it already have their own labs and tools they can use. Now if you was to create something like this for people of all kinds to use like schools, colleges, universities and those studying for degrees in technology or something. Then that would/could have real benefits. Maybe I'm missing the point but like I said the other day, there is always another agenda to these things than meets the eyes. Call my cynical.

I like the name, it is quite catchy. It is like a mixture between Area 51 and then the 404 page missing hahaha.

Or am I crazy?

Yes, you're right Lynne! Its name represent same thing with "Error 404 not found" when you can't find something on internet.

Why it's called Area 404? This is stated on their website...
we needed a big, open space to complement our custom labs. So we built one, and we call it Area 404 — named for our teams wanting a space just like this one, but one wasn't found; now it's found, and we lovingly refer to the space as Area 404

Cool lab, have to say, not quite that impressive if you ask me. I saw a lathe machine, industrial cutter as well as a pressing apparatus, not that impressive, you can find those in any mechanic shop.

Glad to see they have their own research lab though, developing new stuff but it's for internal use most likely.
