The Research Facility can be built on your private space station.

You will need to buy the blueprint for a Research Facility from the contract boards at a NPC space stations.

It will require 150 Aluminum, 300 Iron, 10 Titanium, 10 Carbon, 10 Mechanical Parts and 10 Electronics to construct.

Currently you can:

  • Research New Blueprint for a space station.
  • Research New Blueprint to use at space station shipyard.
  • Research additional rings for your space station.
  • Research the blueprint fragments obtained through wreckage salvaging.
  • Research Upclass on existing blueprints. Upclassing a blueprint will allow you to build the next higher class of module.
  • Research Improved Production for factories, farms and mines.


Research time for upclassing is the target level times 24 hours. So upclassing a blueprint from 4 to 5 would take 5 days.

Research from a blueprint fragment takes approximately 24 hours.

Every Level of improvement to a land based building will give the item a plus 10% productivity on the basic rate, ie level 10 would be +100% = double productivity.

The Improvements are not automatically applied to existing buildings but need to be 'built' onto existing buildings as an upgrade and will require materials to complete.

  • Blueprints can be obtained in Janus A after completing the first two combat missions and at Deep-6 after completing the tutorial. Many blueprints do not show up unless the player has enough credits to purchase them.
