GECK advertisement

The Garden of Eden Creation Kit (or G.E.C.K.) was a device created by Future-Tec, a division of Vault-Tec, which was meant to revitalize areas of the wasteland.

The kit looks like a small, silver briefcase emblazoned with the letters G.E.C.K.; and, according to Vault-Tec advertisements, it contains all the seeds, fertilizer, and other equipment - including a cold fusion power generator and a basic replicator - necessary to start a new settlement after emerging from shelter. Each Vault was presumably issued with two G.E.C.K.s, except for Vaults 8, 13 and Vault 101; Vault 8's extra GECK got swapped (whether by accident or some nefarious scheme, this is not known) with the Vault 13 surplus water chips that were ordered as backups.

The G.E.C.K. designers assumed that the Vault Dwellers would know how to read and how to operate various technologies present in the Vault - they didn't plan for tribals or other contingencies. They also didn't plan on the FEV getting released, or the fact the Vault Dwellers might be attacked by giant scorpions or rats, either.
