Research
During the time when the universe was governed by the United World Council, knowledge was shared among races. Like mining for example, before knowledge was shared, only the Aspha Miner race knew how to mine for minerals on planets successfully. The technique was shared with other races so that all can now mine. Although, specific races, which specialized in certain fields, (like the Aspha Miners do) have more advantages due to the practical skills involved. That is why Aspha Miners have plus 1000% to their mining technique that has been passed from generations to generations. There are five main tech researches that are useful to empires.
Blueprints of useful infrastructure was made for all to use and spread throughout the universe. However, before the United World Council could successfully organize a multi-species knowledge-sharing program where experts from certain races were to be sent to other species for training, the United World Council was overthrown. The dream of equal capability was lost. All that is left are those blueprints that were spread throughout the universe before that.
Utilizing these blueprints, empires will have to spend more time (turns) to research on the blueprints. There are in total of 255 blueprints that need to be researched. For every successful blueprint researched, the empire will gain a 10% efficiency of the researched infrastructure. The act of researching these blueprints is known as Infrastructure Research.
The United World Council`s dreamt of peace and harmony, therefore, technology of ships was not shared. This is because there was no need for such technology sharing. Every empire in the universe was enjoying the peace and there were no thought of war involved. All the empires decided to stop improving on ships to make them better. Hence, each race will have their own ships kept in a concealed hangar in their respective empires. Only a small amount of neutral ships was selected to be used in the United World Councils` fleets to fight off hostile empires. After the United World Council was overthrown, all empires had to rely on the ships kept in their own hangars. The acts of researching these ships` blueprints are called Technology Research.

Research can be accessed via Command Menu: Manage Empire > Science > Research; Figure 1 will be shown on Primary Display. To begin research, click on the blueprint you wish to research and Figure 2 will be shown on Secondary Display (for low graphics, Figure 2 will be shown on Primary Display). Enter the amount of turns you want to use and click "Start Research !" button. |

 | The higher your research level, the more powerful you will be. It is recommended to invest large amount of turns for research purposes since it will benefits you in long run. |
Below is the five main researches, which empires can research, on using the blueprints.
 Housing
Commercial
Agriculture
Industry
Mining
