It's probably an international space station.

International Station, maybe. Space? I don't think so, actually.

I mean, you won't want to transport things like that in rockets.

Also there would be no gravity if that was the case.

Artificial gravity.

Do you even Sci fi? haha.

And there's a looooooooong relationship between sci fi horror and finding dangerous stuff in space and putting it in the ship you're piloting (the Alien series comes to mind).

Well what about the other extreme: Underwater?

Maybe. But it just screams spacy for me. The machine was found somewhere in a salvage mission, so unless humans are living underwater and that salvage team recovered it from a defunct station there wouldn't be anywhere to find the machine. Really seems like a ''they found the machine in some derelict space station/settlement/ship and brought it aboard'' sort of thing.
