| abstract | - Desty Nova (ディスティ・ノヴァ Disuti Nova?) was a renegade Tipharean scientist and the father of Kaos. He is the second Tipharean introduced in Battle Angel Alita. Nova is a highly eccentric, yet brilliant and creative genius who specializes in Nanotechnology . The focus of his research is the study of karma (Karmatron Dynamics), leading him to pursue what can be considered hideous and inhumane experiments. He has also given a few of his patients a new lease on life to see to see if they are capable of overcoming their karma. Nova's motives were driven by his discovery of the brain bio-chip that all functions as the brain for all adult Tiphareans as well as being created by the GENE Project, a LADDER initiative to produce super geniuses. Although responsible for turning several characters into the major adversaries that Alita faces, namely Makaku, Jashugan, Zapan, and Den, the relationship that develops between the two is complex, alternating between that of enemy and ally. This evolves further in Last Order due to the actions of several of his incarnations who were born in the wake of the original Nova's death.
