Similarly corrupted like EDGAR, the professor however has a more clearer scientific outlook rather than using their research to seek fame and fortune. While being in his late 60’s the professor is still quite physically fit.

His objective is to perfect his knowledge rather than what crazy idea Edgar has. He finds Edgar distasteful and unstable. Carlhoff remains attached to the project mainly for the funding, but should an opportunity to be rid of Edgar and pursue the research and the success they have achieved so far he would make that switch without a second thought and zero regrets.

Moralistically Carlhoff is aware this is illegal but for the greater good he is willing to push boundaries, and with the ground breaking work from various universities in Europe including his home city of Vienna, he feels there is something of world shaking importance about to be revealed. He wants his place among the notables.

The project is everything – nothing else matters.
