<translate> Research is the primary method of enhancing the efficiency of colonists and objects. Some constructions and furniture pieces have to be unlocked through research before they can be built. Once a research table and goal are built and set, a designated colonist will begin gathering Research points. The rate at which points are awarded depends on the researcher's skill.

Current research options

There are currently seven research projects available, four of which unlock objects and three which upgrade both items and colonists. </translate>
