FREEORION_VISION
FreeOrion, an open-source game based on Master of Orion, is a turn-based game of epic space strategy that builds on the classic '4X' model by incorporating the nation-building elements of games such as Europa Universalis 2 and a versatile tactical combat engine. While its modular, open-source design allows for a significant degree of customization of the game engine and the story elements by the community, the FreeOrion team is dedicated to the construction of a living, breathing universe in a 'grand campaign' model.

HOMEWORLD_SPECIAL
Homeworld

HOMEWORLD_SPECIAL_DESCRIPTION
This planet is the birthplace of your race; you know how to get the most out of it, gaining bonuses to virtually all planetary stats.

ANCIENT_RUINS_SPECIAL
Ancient Ruins

ANCIENT_RUINS_SPECIAL_DESCRIPTION
This planet holds the ruins of an advanced ancient race, who have been forgotten in the history books, giving a bonus to research.

MINERALS_SPECIAL
Mineral Rich

MINERALS_SPECIAL_DESCRIPTION
This planet has a rich natural deposit of minerals, boosting mining and trade.

TUNNELS_SPECIAL
Natural Tunnels

TUNNELS_SPECIAL_DESCRIPTION
This planet has a network of naturally formed tunnels, enabling a much larger portion of the planet to be easily colonised.

TECHTONIC_INSTABILITY_SPECIAL
Tectonically Unstable

TECHTONIC_INSTABILITY_SPECIAL_DESC
This planet is tectonically unstable. Frequent earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions or unpredictable support below foundations make construction and general infrastructure development difficult.

SOLID_CORE_SPECIAL
Solid Core

SOLID_CORE_SPECIAL_DESC
This planet's core has solidified, and it has a very weak magnetic field. The star's solar wind reaches the surface relatively unfiltered, damaging health and limiting food production.

HIGH_AXIAL_TILT_SPECIAL
High Axial Tilt

HIGH_AXIAL_TILT_SPECIAL_DESC
This planet's rotational axis is highly tilted relative to its orbital plane. Seasonal weather variations are particularly extreme and infrastructure development is significantly impeded.

SLOW_ROTATION_SPECIAL
Very Slow Rotation

SLOW_ROTATION_SPECIAL_DESC
This planet rotates about its axis very slowly, causing very long days and nights. Infrastructure growth, food production and population capacity are reduced.

TIDAL_LOCK_SPECIAL
Tidally Locked Rotation

TIDAL_LOCK_SPECIAL_DESC
This planet is tidally locked with the star it orbits. Its day and year are the same duration, and one half of the planet is perpetually day, the other perpetually night. Infrastructure growth is hampered, though once established, industrial capacity benefits from the locally stable surface conditions.

ECCENTRIC_ORBIT_SPECIAL
Eccentric Orbit

ECCENTRIC_ORBIT_SPECIAL_DESC
This planet's orbit is very eccentric. It has a large distance between its closest and farthest approaches to its star. Total insolation varies significantly throughout the year. The varied conditions inhibit infrastructure development, but provide a beneficial platform for research.

####################################

THEORY_SHORT_DESC
Theoretical Prerequisite

LRN_PHYS_BRAIN
The Physical Brain

LRN_PHYS_BRAIN_DESC
The structures and their functions in the brain are determined. The electrochemical and quantum nature of thought and memory are exposed. With understanding, alteration and augmentation of brain functions becomes possible, and new ideas are spawned at the frontiers of thought, its expression, and its replacement.

LRN_ALGO_ELEGANCE
Algorithmic Elegance

LRN_ALGO_ELEGANCE_DESC
With greater and greater difficulty of data analysis problems, traditional measures of algorithm performance become less useful due to the limitations of irreducible complexity. At this stage, other measures of algorithm form and function become significant; aesthetically and metaphorically, the elegance of the solution must be optimized.

LRN_TRANSLING_THT
Translinguistics

LRN_TRANSLING_THT_DESC
Lesser minds struggle with, or accept the confines of the language they have learned. Adequate minds reach and feel constrained by the concepts they are given ways to express. Truly great minds break free of the bounds of language, forming and analyzing thoughts that verge on the transcendental. But merely great minds are left isolated and futile, for without language to express thoughts, how can they share their insights?

LRN_PSIONICS
Psionics

LRN_PSIONICS_DESC
Through deep introspection or artificial enhancement, the brain may develop abilities to directly interact with the universe around it, bypassing the limitations of a physical body. Powers such as telepathy, empathy, clairvoyance, prescience, psychokinesis and psychoenergetics replace or surpass mundane biological or technological alternatives. Applications of these powers, including mind control, personality alteration and possession have profound implications for the relationship between talented and untalented beings.

LRN_ARTIF_MINDS
Artificial Minds

LRN_ARTIF_MINDS_DESC
While traditional computers have nearly unfathomable intelligence and computational abilities, they lack the essential qualities of self-awareness, consciousness or sentience. With the development of true artificial minds, these qualities may be synthesized, modified and altered. These investigations open new avenues of research into cognitive sciences and novel metaparadigms.

LRN_XENOARCH
Xenoarchaeology

LRN_XENOARCH_DESC
The contemporary empires, races and single-star civilizations are not the first or only beings to have lived in this galaxy. Remains, ruins and rumours of the ancients may be found on deserted planets and lifeless asteroids, or drifting in open space. Finding and deciphering such clues holds great potential to reveal secrets, teach lessons, or give warnings of ancient knowledge.

LRN_GRAVITONICS
Gravitonics

LRN_GRAVITONICS_DESC
Analogous to the "colour charge" of quantum chromodynamics, there are several types of graviton. With the common attractive-force graviton, the colloquial "anti-graviton", "right-graviton" and "left-graviton" may be combined to bend and flex the surface of spacetime arbitrarily. This manipulation is perceived as control of the force of gravity, permitting structures, craft and investigations previously impossible, even theoretically.

LRN_EVERYTHING
Theory of Everything

LRN_EVERYTHING_DESC
Early, naive theories describe subsets of the four fundamental forces of nature: electromagnetism, the strong and weak nuclear forces, and gravity. A complete framework expressing all forces as special cases of a single interaction represents a holy grail of science. This theory describes the earliest moments of the universe, the most distorted depths of a singularity, the tightest windings of hidden dimensions and the final fate of the cosmos. Yet still, there may "exist" layers of existence beyond what can be observed and described by science...

LRN_FORCE_FIELD
Force-Field Harmonics

LRN_FORCE_FIELD_DESC
Like Fourier analysis of sound, electromagnetism, strong and weak forces may be expressed as harmonic quantum standing-wave superpositions of force-carrier particles. By selectively amplifying these harmonics, forces may be arbitrarily controlled to shield, attack, contain or support.

LRN_MIND_VOID
Mind of the Void

LRN_MIND_VOID_DESC
We are not alone in the cosmos... but why should the search be so limited? Many cultures have myths, legends or fervent belief in a higher consciousness. Whether a loving or malevolent God, or a detached observer, it is clear that something, perhaps the universe itself on some level, is alive, aware, watching.

LRN_TIME_MECH
Temporal Mechanics

LRN_TIME_MECH_DESC
What are "now", "future" and "past"? The twin paradox of special relativity, or the theoretical "wormhole" in its place, suggest early forms of "time travel". Direct manipulation of spacetime and temporal flux permit these effects to be harnessed and magnified. Temporal incursions cannot perceptibly alter the past of the universe that we perceive. They can, however, compress ages or extend moments to arbitrary durations, to uses limited only by the material supplies provided, and our own patience...

LRN_NDIM_SUBSPACE
N-Dimensional Subspace

LRN_NDIM_SUBSPACE_DESC
Early superstring theorists spoke of 10, 11 or 26 dimensional universes, with all but the 4 macrodimensions "curled up" so tightly as to be unseen. These and other dimensions may now be uncurled and opened, and the very surface of space itself stretched and pierced by shifting matter to or from levels of existence previously hidden below the surface of our limited perception, or creating layers or bubbles where none existed before.

LRN_UNIF_CONC
Unified Consciousness

LRN_UNIF_CONC_DESC
Telepathic communication between individuals or mind-machine interfaces only permit the most basic, trivial and surface exchanges of thought and ideas. Truly joined minds function as a single consciousness, with the summed faculties and knowledge of its constituent parts, and acting as a new unique entity. This has great potential, but also significant risk, in that the union may not seek its own destruction, which is necessary for the original minds to be regained. Alternatively, one of the minds may dominate the other, controlling or destroying the other, rather than forming an equal, harmonious union.

LRN_TRANSCEND
Singularity of Transcendence

LRN_TRANSCEND_DESC
What is godhood? Is a god concerned with whether it is moral and benevolent or evil and tyrannical? Does a god treat mortals with care and love, hatred and suffering or detached indifference? Does a god even remain aware of the infinitely miniscule affairs of the physical universe, or is true godhood of a form beyond description, of which inability to comprehend by mortals applies equally in the other direction?

GRO_PLANET_ECOL
Planetary Ecology

GRO_PLANET_ECOL_DESC
Agriculture and medical science can drastically increase survivability, causing population growth to become hyperexponential, for a time. Eventually, new limits to growth arise in the carrying capacity of a planet, and the interconnected web of life that supports it. Understanding natural ecology and its interaction to stresses permits the system to be sustained, and its benefits reaped for generations to come.

GRO_GENETIC_ENG
Genetic Engineering

GRO_GENETIC_ENG_DESC
The palette of genetics is as varied as the forms of life from which it borrows. Genes may be removed, copied and reinserted into genomes to create transgenic organisms with combinations of traits not existent or possible in nature. As well, genes may be altered prior to reinsertion, by altering the base codes directly, allowing entirely new genes to be created. Techniques are limited, however, to small modifications of existing genes that are available for study.

GRO_MEDICAL_PATH
Medical Pathology

GRO_MEDICAL_PATH_DESC
Treatment of diseases and injuries requires thorough understanding of their causes.

GRO_INDUSTY_FARM
Industrial Farming

GRO_INDUSTY_FARM_DESC
Traditional, simple farming methods are sufficient for small, locally self-sufficient populations without significant limits on available space or time. With greater specialization of more advanced societies, however, fewer farmers must feed many more workers from much greater distances away, including even interstellar food shipment for fledgling colonies. Hydroponics, automation, fertilization, pest control and altered illumination growth cycles become necessary. Successful use of these tools requires understanding of their function, interactions, costs and low-level mechanisms.

GRO_ENV_ENCAPSUL
Environmental Encapsulation

GRO_ENV_ENCAPSUL_DESC
Covered, surrounded and sealed pockets of a particular environment are essential for space travel, colonization of hazardous planets and preservation of natural diversity on heavily industrialized worlds. Maintaining the desired conditions is not as trivial as it may seem however, as in many cases there is no external source of pure and clean materials or organisms available. Rather, it is necessary to create a self-sufficient and sustainable environment, often an entire ecology, capable of recycling and reusing its wastes to supply everything it needs and consumes.

GRO_SYMBIOTIC_BIO
Symbiotic Biology

GRO_SYMBIOTIC_BIO_DESC
From the first domesticated animals or agricultural plants, societies discover the benefits of symbiotic relationships with other species. Later, bacteria or natural parasites are often used for medical purposes. In these early forms, however, the dominant species is (ideally) in complete control of the relationship, with the "farmed" organism existing only to server its owner. True symbiosis only occurs when both organisms exist and prosper together, each aiding and depending on the other to mutual benefit, the combination greater than the sum of the parts alone.

GRO_GENETIC_MED
Genetic Medicine

GRO_GENETIC_MED_DESC
Traditional Genetic Engineering alters genetic codes and then implements or raises the modified organism. Similar techniques may be applied to already matured individuals. The goals of these treatments may be cosmetic or enhancing modifications, or corrective, preventative or time-critical medical treatments. Reducing the delay between alteration and results from generations to months, days or hours has a corresponding increase in the range and power of possible alterations.

GRO_LIFECYCLE_MAN
Lifecycle Manipulation

GRO_LIFECYCLE_MAN_DESC
Most complex organisms have progress through physiological stages during a lifetime, whether distinctly separated by metamorphoses, or blurred by continuous slow aging. In many cases, one or more of these stages are, at least at a given time, more useful and desirable than others. By delicate control of hormonal or mental mechanisms, it becomes possible to drastically speed or slow each stage, permitting fully developed and functional individuals to be produced in a fraction of the natural timeframe, and for those individuals to remain functional indefinitely, becoming effectively immortal.

GRO_XENO_GENETICS
Xenological Genetics

GRO_XENO_GENETICS_DESC
Early genetics is limited by the available samples of naturally occurring organisms on which to base its modifications. As well, these modifications are restricted within the limits of the physical mechanisms of genetic code storage, alteration and expression in developed individuals. By investigating the equivalent systems in entirely different ecosystems and organisms, great insights or revelations may be reached, spurring new developments in more familiar genetic systems.

GRO_NANOTECH_MED
Nanotech Medicine

GRO_NANOTECH_MED_DESC
While genetic alteration can repair or undo the effects of harmful or undesired mutations or correct biochemical imbalances, treating major physical trauma and non-genetic congenital defects requires actual physical corrective measures. Nanotechnology may be used to accomplish these tasks, with two important advantages: Correction may be done without invasive surgeries and associated secondary damage and risks, and treatment reaction time is greatly reduced, as the tools to do the job are always in place and ready to function.

GRO_ORBIT_FARMING
Orbital Farming

GRO_ORBIT_FARMING_DESC
The primary energy source for food production in most societies is solar radiation. Bound to a planet, farms have very limited access to this energy, due to the comparatively small solid angle subtended by the planet's surface, and surface farming must also compete with other land uses. By moving food production to orbital installations, continuous access to solar energy is gained, and any undesired spectral filtration by planetary atmospheres is eliminated. Food production may be increased dramatically.

GRO_INDUSRY_CLONE
Industrial Cloning

GRO_INDUSRY_CLONE_DESC
Primitive manual nuclear transfer cloning techniques are little more than novelties for large organisms. By applying techniques similar to industrial mass production or biochemical process engineering, it becomes possible to generate dozens, or millions, of full-grown copies of a single genetic blueprint. Populations may be made to order, tailored to meet the specific needs of society.

GRO_XENO_HYBRIDS
Xenological Hybridization

GRO_XENO_HYBRIDS_DESC
Regardless of how well understood, or how adeptly improved, a biological system is limited by its inherent nature. Structures and basic physiology can only be altered so far within the confines of a single planet's biology. With understanding of other biologies, however, the disparate systems may be fused, forming an entirely new hybrid biology, with potential abilities and traits greater than those of any of its parts.

GRO_NANO_CYBERNET
Nanotech Cybernetics

GRO_NANO_CYBERNET_DESC
After applying nanotechnology to internally correct defects or injuries, the next step is to augment or replace natural biochemical systems with superior artificial replacements. Rather than merely regrowing lost limbs or repairing damaged organs, augments are able to quickly grow new ones to suit their needs at any time. Antiquated biological systems, from muscle tissue and tendons, down to organelles or enzymes may also be replaced, affording greatly increased strength, endurance and flexibility.

GRO_ENERGY_META
Pure-Energy Metabolism

GRO_ENERGY_META_DESC
The ultimate stage of physical development is to transcend the physical altogether. Without bodies, individuals and society may move, grow and exist freely, unhindered by unnecessary physical limitations and inefficient metabolic processes that waste energy supporting homeostasis.

PRO_MICROGRAV_MAN
Microgravity Manufacturing

PRO_MICROGRAV_MAN_DESC
The microgravity of low planetary orbit offers great potential for novel manufacturing facility designs, equipment and techniques not possible on planet surfaces. Solids may be held in place with minimal support. Liquids and gases float freely, shaped only by surface tension, unless otherwise manipulated. Factory equipment may be arranged optimally in three dimensions. These conditions permit great increases in efficiency and productivity, if properly exploited.

PRO_PLANET_GEOL
Planetary Geology

PRO_PLANET_GEOL_DESC
Useful minerals are created throughout the volume of a planet, under various exacting chemical and thermodynamic conditions, including aqueous surface sedimentation, crushing core differentiation and mid-depth metamorphosis. After creation processes such as plate tectonics, vulcanism and deep convection currents are equally important in determining the final location and form of these extractable resources. Understanding these processes, their effects, causes and signs is essential for large scale efficient mining operations.

PRO_ROBOTIC_PROD
Robotic Production

PRO_ROBOTIC_PROD_DESC
Although high level initial design and initial facility setup still require active supervision, the elimination of operators from the actual production process eliminates many bottlenecks. Robots work continuously, without perpetual demands for greater economic compensation. Robots have much greater tolerance for hazardous environmental conditions in the factory, and do not require additional habitable space off-site. Robots perform their assigned tasks flawlessly, or at least as well as they are instructed.

PRO_FUSION_GEN
Fusion Generation

PRO_FUSION_GEN_DESC
Explosive or uncontrolled thermonuclear reactions are comparatively simple to cause at scales ranging from small tactical warheads to supergiant stellar furnaces. Controllable, stable and practical power generation from the reaction is somewhat more difficult. The process remains attractive, however, due to the near-limitless supply of fuel and potential for emissions-free operation.

PRO_NANOTECH_PROD
Nanotech Production

PRO_NANOTECH_PROD_DESC
Traditional production techniques are fundamentally limited by the size and form of the tools it employs. As a product takes form, its outer layers may prevent direct access and manipulation of the inner structure, requiring inconvenient and inefficient adjustment to the order of assembly. Further, the components of a larger product must be carefully formed and assembled to exacting specifications to ensure they will function as intended when combined. By using nanotechnology to form a complete product in one step, directly from the stock materials, these limitations can be bypassed, dramatically improving efficiency and production speed.

PRO_ORBITAL_GEN
Orbital Generation

PRO_ORBITAL_GEN_DESC
Low orbit of planetary bodies provides numerous benefits for power generation compared to planetary surfaces. Direct exposure to nearby solar radiation without atmospheric attenuation, and the orders of magnitude larger structures that may be assembled in microgravity to collect it are significant advantages. The resulting power may be used in orbit, or may be beamed to the planet to support surface industry. As well, new mechanisms of energy conversion become available in orbit, including planetary magnetic field coupling, orbital momentum exchange, and frictional heating with planetary atmospheres, which are uniquely beneficial for specialized applications.

PRO_SENTIENT_AUTOMATION
Sentient Automation

PRO_SENTIENT_AUTOMATION_DESC
As equipment becomes increasingly automated, it becomes capable of fully replicating and maintaining itself without outside support, other than its required raw materials and a requested, or suggested, final product to produce. When controlled by an artificial mind, the entire system can learn, plan, react, and adapt autonomously, and can do so without the cumbersome inefficiencies traditionally required to house and employ workers.

PRO_FRC_FLD_ASSMB
Force-Field Assembly

PRO_FRC_FLD_ASSMB_DESC
Whether effected through artificial means, or psychokinesis, or a combination thereof, remote manipulation represents a revolutionary improvement in assembly techniques. At nanoscopic scales, fully controlled chemical reactions and custom assembled molecules become almost trivial. At larger scales, up to and including manipulation of celestial bodies, locally reactionless and non-contact force impartion permit previously impossible non-destructive testing, and are particularly suited to manipulation within an enclosed or covered region, without compromising isolation seals, nor removing masses of previously obstructing matter.

PRO_INTSTEL_COPRO
Interstellar Co-Production

PRO_INTSTEL_COPRO_DESC
Traditional means of production are limited by the necessity of self-sufficiency due to transportation and other logistical problems. Later planetary regional cooperation permits some degree of specialization and co-operation, with each facility producing only a few parts or subsystems, and the whole system benefitting from concentrated expertise and economy of scale. Expanding this concept several orders of magnitude, it may adapted to a galactic scale, with individual planets or entire systems functioning in the role of the single specialized facility. The logistical difficulties inherent in this paradigm are also similar to those of the earlier iteration, and are scaled up to the same degree as the potential benefits.

PRO_NDIM_ASSMB
N-Dimensional Assembly

PRO_NDIM_ASSMB_DESC
The geometry of physical space has always been a major impediment to the assembly of objects within that space. Objects cannot be collocated, and volumes cannot be simultaneously enclosed and open if their existence is restricted to a mere three dimensions. Moving beyond this limitation, parts of objects can be folded out of the way in a pocket dimensions, and continguous lines may be passed around other masses by going "off-axis". Similar mechanisms are also used to assemble lower-dimensional objects in configurations that would be impossible without higher-dimensional pathways.

PRO_SINGULAR_GEN
Singularity Generation

PRO_SINGULAR_GEN_DESC
As matter is drawn towards a singularity by the intense spacetime curvature, or gravitational field, the matter forms an accretion disk and is greatly compressed and heated. High energy radiation emitted from the disk may be captured and harnessed for power generation. The event horizon of the singularity itself also emits radiation do to annihilation of virtual particle-antiparticle pairs that form in its vicinity. This method of power generation is significantly more delicate and unstable than that with the accretion disk method, but can produce even greater output as well.

PRO_MATENG_REPLIC
Replication

PRO_MATENG_REPLIC_DESC
Previous iterations of assembly techniques were essentially ways to avoid or remove particularly vexing problems with manipulation of matter. None of these techniques fundamentally changed the basic method however, which was to assemble larger objects out of smaller parts, be they prefabricated subsections, or individual atoms. By converting pure energy directly into the desired material object, eliminating the need for precursor parts or supplied materials, the ultimate level of flexible and efficient assembly is achieved.

PRO_ZERO_GEN
Zero-Point Generation

PRO_ZERO_GEN_DESC
Any power generation mechanism that involves a material fuel supply is limited by the relativistic mass-energy relationship: no more energy can be produced than equivalent mass consumed, even with perfect efficiency. By tapping the inherent energy of the vacuum, or zero-point energy, an effectively infinite source is made available. The rate, or power, of this extraction is also theoretically unbounded, with limits only in the available means to collect and use the output.

CON_ORBITAL_CON
Orbital Construction

CON_ORBITAL_CON_DESC
On a planet, there is always a fixed reference direction: "up". Microgravity is effectively isotropic. This single difference has a multitude of consequences for the types of structures that can be built, and which of those forms is the optimal use of space, materials and energy in each environment. As well, the interior configuration of spaces in orbit must be rethought. However, while it is appealing to attempt to completely revolutionize interior design in a paradigm completely independent of the styles used on planet surfaces, the practical use of these spaces will be initial primarily by those who are used to, and adapted for, those planet surfaces. Rather than a complete break from older styles, a gradual transition may be more effective.

CON_ARCH_PSYCH
Architectural Psychology

CON_ARCH_PSYCH_DESC
The form of a structure or inhabited space is not merely guided by the physical limitations of the materials from which it is constructed. Psychological effects on the inhabitants within, or observers outside can have a far greater influence on the success of a design than the strength of a wall or sturdiness of a foundation.

CON_INFRA_ECOL
Infrastructure Ecology

CON_INFRA_ECOL_DESC
The basic infrastructure of an established planetary colony may seem to be created entirely by the colonizers, and to function only according to their designs. In reality, however, the ecology of the planet on which it is built is the foundation and support mechanism for the added infrastructure, and often forms an integral part of its function. Understanding the interaction between natural and artificial components, and the limits of the resources an ecological system can provide are essential to the development of an optimal and sustainable infrastructure for any colony.

CON_ORGANIC_STRC
Organic Structures

CON_ORGANIC_STRC_DESC
Buildings formed of inanimate minerals are functional and occasionally elegant, and those of harvested but dead organics are often simple and inexpensive. Actual living structures, however, can be grown into their final shape with no additional labour, as well effect some degree of self-repair when damaged. They may also naturally self-regulate their internal environments, or potentially adapt to varied or changing surroundings as necessary, during or after their initial growth.

CON_METRO_INFRA
Metroplex Infrastructure

CON_METRO_INFRA_DESC
When the entire surface of a world is covered, continued development must occur above and below pre-existing construction. Care must be taken to ensure the stability of the undercut or overshadowed structures are not damaged, and transportation and supply routes must be rethought to support vastly increased population densities. Furthermore, novel stylistic and functional issues must be considered, to ensure that the newer levels, and the combined whole, are worth inhabiting.

CON_TRANS_STRC
Transforming Structures

CON_TRANS_STRC_DESC
A shutter functions as both a solid wall and open window, according to the desire of its user. A room may be refurnished to serve an entirely new purpose, within the limits of the space available. This concept may also be extended to the actual form and structure of an entire building or city, whether mechanical or organic. Eliminating the need for demolition and rebuilding permits much greater infrastructure flexibility and efficiency. Single or isolated structures may also serve many purposes simultaneously, that would previously have required much larger and elaborate fixed designs.

CON_ARCH_MONOFILS
Architectural Monofilaments

CON_ARCH_MONOFILS_DESC
Essentially unbreakable and merely a few atoms in diameter, single-crystal filaments have many uses in improving traditional structure designs in durability and economy of construction. The capacity to suspend or stress other materials in previously impossible configurations also permits a wholly new designs. Low weight and high strength filaments are of particular use in large-scale orbital or surface to orbit spanning structures, where variations in gravity across lengths were previously very prohibitive.

CON_SELFGRAV_STRC
Self-Gravitating Structures

CON_SELFGRAV_STRC_DESC
As orbital construction grows ever larger in scale, eventually the mass of a single installation is sufficient to appreciably self-gravitate. Where previously the microgravity environment was fundamental, designs must be rethought again, just as they were when originally moving surface activity into orbit. Rather than expanding endlessly in efficient regular patterns, the natural curved shapes of planetary bodies begins to emerge in artificial bodies as well. Advantages over surface construction are retained, however, as the artificial mass is designed and built with its purpose in mind.

CON_ASYMP_MATS
Asymptotic Materials

CON_ASYMP_MATS_DESC
Once certain thresholds of performance are passed, measuring the physical properties of materials for relative comparison becomes impractical in any terms other than orders of magnitude or logarithmic scales. Much like superconductivity in electronics, the tensile strength, toughness, density, elasticity, refractory index and other mechanical properties of materials may be controlled with effectively no limits. With all previously significant limitations removed, structure designs are further unhindered, and may extend or change by similar order of magnitude scales.

CON_STRC_INT_FLDS
Structural Integrity Fields

CON_STRC_INT_FLDS_DESC
Advanced materials and architecture can greatly extend the practical size of rigid structures. Eventually however, the stresses placed on load-bearing matter approach the magnitude of the strong nuclear force which holds atomic nuclei together, at which point alternative sources of support become essential. Projected energy support fields may serve this purpose, and replacing or augmenting fixed supports in this manner allows a drastic reduction in the necessary structural materials mass and volume. As well, such methods may allow dynamic adjustment of reinforcement in response to rapidly changing stress patterns, whereas fixed supports must remain in place even when not being actively used.

CON_CONTGRAV_ARCH
Controlled Gravity Architecture

CON_CONTGRAV_ARCH_DESC
By fully controlling the orientation and strength of gravitational forces acting upon and existent within a structure, designs may simultaneously exhibit the freedom of weightlessness and the utility of having a defined up and down. The structure itself, and the local environments it seeks to provide, may take any shape in space, extending to great lengths, looping about itself, and making arbitrary interconnections. Simultaneously, local environments within may be infused with a useful tug, which may vary from or be entirely different from immediately adjacent areas. Such versatility permits great new functional designs for social, manufacturing or other uses.

CON_GAL_INFRA
Galactic Infrastructure

CON_GAL_INFRA_DESC
Integration and development of the infrastructures on highly productive worlds into a unified galaxy-spanning network is one of the greatest logistical effort conceivable. When completed, such a system functionally unifies the worlds of which it is composed. Integrated transportation, housing, maintenance, and construction tools may be fluidly deployed wherever needed to optimally alter resource allocations or adjust to changes.

CON_FRC_ENRG_STRC
Force-Energy Structures

CON_FRC_ENRG_STRC_DESC
When forces and energy can be manipulated as desired to provide the same functionality as solid surfaces, there is no essential need to have physical materials enclosing the occupants of a building. Structures composed entirely of energy have many advantages, including simple reconfiguration, resilience, portability and novel design possibilities.

CON_ART_HEAVENLY
Artificial Heavenly Bodies

CON_ART_HEAVENLY_DESC
When roughly the mass of a small moon or larger, it is no longer sufficient to conceive of what is wrought as a "structure", "station" or "ship". Rather, beyond this scale, the object becomes more like a heavenly body; its gravitational pull influences orbital motions, it may retain an thin atmosphere on its surface, and it may be orbited by, rather than orbiting with, lesser structures. At even larger scales, entire planets may be built, or rebuilt, or even new stars may be formed and ignited, broadcasting the power and determination of their creators throughout the universe.

CON_TRANS_ARCH
Transcendent Architecture

CON_TRANS_ARCH_DESC
The epitome of design unifies optimal functionality with elegance of form. A transcendent structure expands and inspires the minds of its occupants or observers with its shape, placement, substance and integration, whether through awe-inspiring scale, perfect emphasis of a single idea, perception or lack thereof, or utter simplicity and fitness for purpose.

CON_NDIM_STRC
N-Dimensional Structures

CON_NDIM_STRC_DESC
Of all the bizarre feats of applied physics, the ability to to fold space onto itself has the most direct and profound influence on structural form and design. The potential is endless, literally as hallways are made to bend back upon their beginning, or given a twist so that their ceiling becomes their floor. As well, the concept of urban sprawl becomes laughable, as any number of people may fit into an arbitrarily small volume, safely tucked into an adjacent plane of existence.

ECO_MARKET_ECON
Market Economics

ECO_MARKET_ECON_DESC
The free exchange of goods and services between individuals and groups, whether by simple barter or through a commonly accepted credit currency, can be a effective and dynamic economic system. In the idealized case, the market is fully self-regulating, with supply and demand forces pushing the economy towards optimally efficient resource use and worker employment. As well, the opportunity for personal gain in such systems can be a powerful motivator for innovation and worker effort. Caution must be observed however, as that same motivation can also lead to exploitation and collusion amongst the privileged and successful, which can negate and undo much of the system's proported benefits.

ECO_PLANNED_ECON
Planned Economics

ECO_PLANNED_ECON_DESC
By identifying and prioritizing needs and specific goals for society, then actively implementing the necessary steps to realize them, a focused and stable economic system may be achieved. Whether the path taken is decided by high-level central planners or through distributed local bodies, in the ideal case all unnecessary diversions and waste are eliminated and all resources are focused on the top priorities. As well, a collective purpose and effective planning eliminates inactivity and waste by ensuring a opportunity to contribute for all workers. Caution must be observed, however, as individuals may lack dedication to the communal goals or the specific plan to achieve them, which may undermine worker motivation.

ECO_EXTERN_INTEG
Externality Integration

ECO_EXTERN_INTEG_DESC
Unsophisticated economic systems feature decision-making based on factors affecting only the decision-makers directly. Other factors, or externalities, that affect non-decision makers exclusively, are not considered, which has accordingly unexpected consequences, resulting in an overall loss of economic efficiency in an otherwise ideal system. By integrating factors such as environmental degradation, tragedies of the commons, or consequences of networking effects, the overall economy can be brought closer to its theoretical ideal form.

ECO_ECON_SPECTRO
Economic Spectroscopy

ECO_ECON_SPECTRO_DESC
With careful analysis and well-formed models, a linearly independent set of basis states as a frequency parameterization of an economy may be constructed. Cyclical economic trends and indicators of particular recurrence periods may then be studied independently, and may be amplitude- or phase-adjusted to achieve desired economic goals. Such manipulations must be conducted with great caution however, as simultaneously phase-matched cyclical effects which initially appear to be unbounded growth will inevitably reach a peak, after which the economic collapse will be equally dramatic.

ECO_INTSTEL_TRADE
Interstellar Trade

ECO_INTSTEL_TRADE_DESC
Commerce between the stars can be seen as essentially equivalent to trade confined to a single planet or continent, aside from the scale of the distances involved. While concepts such as trade routes, merchant guilds and piracy all remain in some form, effectively adapting methods of economic interchange and its regulation and control to space-based forms is nontrivial. As in earlier times, the harnessing or misuse of these factors can have drastic effects on the economies that grow to depend on them.

ECO_ENV_ADAPTION
Environmental Adaptation

ECO_ENV_ADAPTION_DESC
When the colonization of space begins, the great variety of planetary environments that are encountered will seem to be nothing but a hindrance, as most environments are inhospitable to any given race, and population growth and expansion are thus limited. However, as expansion continues and empires become established in multiple star systems, environmental diversity becomes increasingly beneficial if properly harnessed. Each environment provides its own set of direct and indirect benefits, particularly for the creation or extraction of physical and conceptual commodities, which may then be traded and shared between systems. By adapting the economic system of each world to best suit its unique characteristics, these benefits are maximized.

ECO_GAL_MONEY_POL
Galactic Monetary Policy

ECO_GAL_MONEY_POL_DESC
As interstellar trade expands, a transition is made between isolated planetary economies to integrated regional or imperial economies. Inter-empire exchange rates, lending and trade policies and their consequent effects for seemingly dissociated regions become the most significant factors in the overall health of the galactic economy. Accordingly, unilateral economic considerations must be tempered, and local issues considered only in the context of wider-ranging policies, in order to ensure economic prosperity for all.

ECO_ECON_FLUIDITY
Economic Fluidity

ECO_ECON_FLUIDITY_DESC
When the physical distance separating star systems is no longer matched by the perceived distance for those whose economic activity occurs between them, a paradigm shift occurs. Previously, the interstellar economy could be thought of like a solid, with atomic local economies and rigid trade bonds between close neighbours. With the perceptual shift, the economy of the empire undergoes a conceptual state change into a fluid. Economic activity begins to flow freely between the stars, into previously unharness crevices, filling cracks, following new flow-channels and eliminating localized unstable asymmetry.

ECO_PLANET_COLONY
Planetary Colonialism

ECO_PLANET_COLONY_DESC
When an expending empire encounters a planet that is rich in resources and which is populated by primitive native sentients, the opportunity arises to treat the planet as a colonial possession. A large and well-adapted workforce is immediately available, and can often be a source of information about the non-obvious unique resources of the planet. Care must be taken, however, to ensure that the native population, or at least its leaders, remains inclined to participate in the economic partnership, as former colonial workers can make an equally well-adapted rebel army.

ECO_ECON_PRESCIEN
Economic Prescience

ECO_ECON_PRESCIEN_DESC
Feedback control systems often consider the present, the past, and projected future states of a system when making correctional adjustments. Making projections is error-prone to the point of uselessness, however, for any highly complex and non-deterministic systems of interacting sentients such as an economy or society. To resolve this difficultly, precognitive projection can be employed to reveal many of the possible future time-paths and their relative probabilities, as well as the best adjustments to make to adjust these probabilities as desired. By this method, the unpredictable and often illogical choices of sentients may be isolated, and the economy can finally be described and controlled as well as a macroscopic physical system.

ECO_STAB_HYPGROW
Stabilized Hypergrowth

ECO_STAB_HYPGROW_DESC
Economic activity functions as a positive feedback into its own growth. An exponential growth curve naturally follows from this in many cases, and economic growth is thus often described as a ratio of the economy's size. Occasional bursts of hyperexponential growth intermittently occur, but are unstable and followed by painful corrections. However, through proper structuring and management, and careful cultivation of the necessary conditions for it to begin, indefinite hyperexponential growth may be maintained.

ECO_ECON_HEGEMONY
Economic Hegemony

ECO_ECON_HEGEMONY_DESC
An economy in optimal form represents a great variety of financial, cultural and other social mechanisms that may be employed to achieve the goals of those who are able to control them. Through use of these tools, other less-developed economies may be completely controlled, either through overt domination or destruction, or more subtle and targeted manipulations. By extension, an externally-controlled economy may be used to exert influence or control on all other aspects of a society. Through these means, a power equal or greater than any martial force is realized.

SHP_SPACE_TACTICS
Space Tactics

SHP_SPACE_TACTICS_DESC
Battles in microgravity and vacuum require specialized weapon and defensive systems, as well as the theoretical tactics that motivate their use.

SHP_GAL_EXPLO
Galactic Exploration

SHP_GAL_EXPLO_DESC
The discovery of interstellar travel via starlanes ushers in a new era of development of society. Old political squabbles between minor factions become insignificant when the entire civilization is faced with the limitless potential of the stars... for growth and prosperity, or utter destruction.

SHP_NAVIGATION
Interstellar Navigation

SHP_NAVIGATION_DESC
'''Starlanes form a relatively restrictive network of possible paths, but interstellar travel is complicated and risky without proper navigation techniques.

In future, this tech might do something related to starlanes or ship speed or range...'''

CON_TERRAFORM
Terraforming

CON_TERRAFORM_DESC
Changing the environmental type of a planet is a massive undertaking, the challenge of this process is to a large degree logistical. The precise method depends greatly on the type of planet to be changed and the desired result. However in all cases much of the surface of the entire planet and it's atmosphere needs to be converted to other types of molecules, vented into space or buried under the crust. The process takes years.

CON_RAPID_TERRAFORM_SHORT_DESC
Allows rapid and remote terraforming to improve planets

CON_GRAVITY_WELLS
Controlled gravity wells

CON_GRAVITY_WELLS_DESC
By installing a massive null gravity generator at a planet's core, it becomes possible to turn a planet's gravity on or off like a light switch, but in a narrow well. The planet's industry then gains all the benefits of low-G and zero-G, but without the drawbacks. Reverse gravity wells can also be created, making space launches cost practically nothing.

CON_MEGALITH
Megalith Construction

CON_MEGALITH_DESC
Mastering advanced orbital construction techniques, scientists create methods to enable construction of the awe inspiring Megalith.

CON_ORBITAL_FACT
Orbital Factories

CON_ORBITAL_FACT_DESC
Since all colonies begin in space and raw materials are largely imported from off-world, the common Exodus practice of complete planet-fall for new colony ships is wasteful. The manufacturing work so badly needed for upstart colonies can be done more cheaply in orbit. Equipping new colonies with pre-built orbital factory kits helps them make use of the natural resource of low orbit.

CON_PLANET_RING
Planetary Ring

CON_PLANET_RING_DESC
Space elevators are now a relatively modest task. It now becomes possible to undertake their natural extension. By placing several elevators in a ring around a world like spokes in a wheel, and then connecting them together by enormous chains of satellites and space stations, a planetary ring can be created.

CON_SPACE_ELEVATOR
Space Elevator

CON_SPACE_ELEVATOR_DESC
Nano-construction enables production of tensile cables strong enough to reach beyond geostationary orbit. Shuttles magnetically lifted up the cable are superior to the expensive, inefficient, and highly dangerous rocket launches to escape velocity.

CON_SUBTER_CONST
Subterranean Construction

CON_SUBTER_CONST_DESC
When space is at a premium, the holy grail of construction is the ability to build down as easily as up. Modern techniques finally make this possible.

CON_ORBITAL_INFRA

CON_ORBITAL_INFRA_DESC
A well-developed general support infrastructure located in orbit permits great flexibility and rapid development of resource production capacity.

ECO_COLONIAL_ECO
Colonial Economic Blueprinting

ECO_COLONIAL_ECO_DESC
With advanced economic planning now a reality, the economy for an entire developing world can be blueprinted with the precision of a physical building. Upstart markets tap their raw potential for growth, without risk of being mired in traditionally immature "wild frontier" mentalities.

ECO_COMM_UNION
Commercial Union of the Colonies

ECO_COMM_UNION_DESC
The combination of applications as diverse as economic spectroscopy, bio-mimetics, digital psychology and advanced game theory produce a shift in the paradigm of economic thinking. The means to organize economic markets orders of magnitude above any previously envisioned becomes possible.

ECO_DEEP_GREEN
Deep Green

ECO_DEEP_GREEN_DESC
The quantum fractal nature of the equations of economic spectroscopy make all but the relatively superficial analyses impractical for most markets. However a massive computer designed from the ground up to handle the unusual algorithms, could supply an entire empire with economic foresight and stability.

ECO_ECO_ETHER
Economic Etherealization

ECO_ECO_ETHER_DESC
In the Exodus age of vast possibilities, the economic systems of most worlds have been slow to abandon the archaic paper and pencil, trading floor mentality. The final step in economic modernization is to dispense with out-dated, corporeal economic systems once and for all and transcend to a purer plane of digital information and virtual presence. This transition will boost the markets of all worlds, especially those largest.

ECO_PARADISE
Paradise Planet

ECO_PARADISE_DESC
The Paradise Planet is the ultimate tourist resort, a world whose entire economic structure has been converted to tourism and pleasure seeking. The benefits of such a planet would extend to the citizenry of distant worlds.

ECO_SINKHOLE
Economic Sinkholes

ECO_SINKHOLE_DESC
When economic activity is viewed as a flowing fluid, the capability to affect its flow becomes apparent. By creating a localized sinkhole in surface over which trade flows, trade centres well removed from the sinkhole itself are strongly affected. Such trade current disruption propagates out in all directions however, and is difficult or impossible to target selectively.

GRO_SELF_ROTATING_CROPS

GRO_SELF_ROTATING_CROPS_DESC
'''High-intensity farming output benefits from a thorough understanding of the environment and application of this knowledge in custom-tailoring crops via genetic modification. Self-rotating crops may be grown continually, without the traditional need to alternate to less productive, but soil rejuvenating, plants every few growing seasons.

+ 5 to max farming per 10 population on primary farming focused worlds.'''

GRO_BIOTERROR
Bioterror Facilites

GRO_BIOTERROR_DESC
A research centre created to safely develop the most dangerous of biological weaponry while keeping prying eyes out. Biological weaponry takes effect too slowly to be of much use in a direct military conflict but as a weapon of terror it is unsurpassed, a slowly growing contamination will spread panic before it, images of a desperate people quarantined by their own government sows despair beyond the affected area, however care must be taken when developing such organisms to ensure they are not accidental released furthermore utter secrecy is required at the risk of damaging relations with other empires and our own people.

GRO_HABITATION_DOMES
Habitation Domes

GRO_HABITATION_DOMES_DESC
'''While terraforming efforts can make planets much more useful, the process is expensive and time consuming. Habitation Domes provide a faster and cheaper, though more limited, alternative for increasing the population capacity of inhospitable worlds, allowing moderate levels of infrastructure and resource capacity to be developed.

Increases by +2 the maximum population of Terrible environment worlds with current construction of at least 20.'''

GRO_CADUCEAN
The Caducean Institute

GRO_CADUCEAN_DESC
A premiere centralized medical academy and research centre has benefits to health and population growth throughout an empire. Adequately funding such an institute can greatly tax smaller economies, however, potentially limiting its attraction to large or economically powerfully empires.

GRO_GENOME_BANK
Genome Bank

GRO_GENOME_BANK_DESC
The unknown variables in genomic calculations for any given species remain severe for all but the simplest genetic repairs, not to mention the changes that a genetic modification can potentially have on a larger multi-species biosphere. To truly realize the benefits of genetic medicine, it is necessary to collect a massive genome database for all the species from all known worlds.

GRO_LIVING_PLANET
The Living Planet

GRO_LIVING_PLANET_DESC
Theoretically, it is possible to completely predict the ecology of a single planet by mapping out its entire web of biological interdependence, both sentient and non-sentient, in fractal algorithms. In practice however, this could only be realized by constructing a vast planet-spanning network running a computer program dedicated to regulating the planet's entire biosphere. This computer would become, in effect, the brain of a new type of life--A single planetary organism, with intelligent citizens as part of its fabric, subject to the greater will.

GRO_ORBITAL_GARDENS

Provides + 4 to research per 10 population on primary research focused worlds in systems with black holes.
Provides +3 to planets in systems with neutron stars.
Provides +2 to planets in systems with white or blue stars.
Provides +1 to planets in systems with red, orange or yellow stars.'''

LRN_OBSERVATORY_I
Observatory

LRN_OBSERVATORY_I_DESC
The natural extension of industrial- and information-age telescopes, with military-inspired algorithms permits enhanced long-range detection.

LRN_AUTOLAB_I
Basic Autolabs

LRN_AUTOLAB_I_DESC
Automated laboratories can produce significant research output without direct supervision, however it remains necessary to provide guidance to such labs regarding what avenues or research to pursue, and extract the resulting information from them. A specialized control centre is required to facilitate these exchanges. Consequently, while individual worlds develop their own autolabs without additional cost, the control centre requires signifiant up-front production effort to build. This makes autolabs more attractive to empires with excess production capacity, but lacking in research output, and less useful for empires already producing significant research, but lacking in industrial or minerals capacity. Additionally, autolabs produce larger quantities of waste products than standard laboratories, negatively impacting health on worlds on which they are used.

LRN_THEOREM_PROVER
Automatic Theorem Prover

LRN_THEOREM_PROVER_DESC
Abstract mathematical discoveries frequently have practical, if unforeseen, applications in future research. Increasingly complex formal systems require correspondingly increased time to manipulate in order to prove such discoveries, limiting progress. Elegant algorithmic methods to automate Theorem Proving can overcome this problem, however doing so requires significant research effort itself, limiting the method's usefulness to empires which have chosen to focus on research in the long-term.

LRN_COLLECTIVE_NET
Collective Thought Network

LRN_COLLECTIVE_NET_DESC
By transferring the mind into cyberspace, thousands of minds can act as one, solving problems and making breakthroughs that no single mind could.

LRN_DISTRIB_THOUGHT
Distributed Thought Computing

LRN_DISTRIB_THOUGHT_DESC
The average citizen literally wastes his mind away, one of the finest computing devices in the universe. By tapping into the idle brain cycles of a sufficiently large population through a network of simple cybernetic transceivers, the research centers of a world can gain access to cheap and plentiful raw computing power.

LRN_ENCLAVE_VOID
Enclave of the Void

LRN_ENCLAVE_VOID_DESC
Study of the Void Mind could be accelerated by genetically engineering the populace of an entire world to be attuned to the Void. This new priestly class could transform the entire social structure of their world to better understand and channel the wisdom of the Void Mind to the entire empire.

LRN_LOOKING_GLASS
The Looking Glass

LRN_LOOKING_GLASS_DESC
A window into Space-Time, the Looking Glass will be the ultimate museum. Instead of excavating the ancient ruins of eras past, it is possible to simply open a window into time. Great leaders of the past would no longer be accessible only through books and holo-vids, but directly observable. Such a museum would gather flocks of both tourists and academicians.

LRN_MONUMENT_EXODUS
Monument to Exodus

LRN_MONUMENT_EXODUS_DESC
The greatest artists and engineers of an Exodus society are called together to produce a design for a fitting tribute to their accomplishments, and usher in the Exodus Age.

LRN_PSICORP
PsiCorp

LRN_PSICORP_DESC
It is now possible to identify the nascent psionic abilities inherent in rare individuals at birth. But to truly cultivate their gifts, it would be necessary to create an academy dedicated to psionics. Graduates of this academy, would comprise a highly trained task-force of Psi elite that could be assigned to research projects as conduits and amplifiers for the greatest researchers of an empire.

PRO_AUTOFACTORY_I
Basic Autofactories

PRO_AUTOFACTORY_I_DESC
Automated factories greatly increase industrial output without direct supervision, however it remains necessary to provide guidance to such labs regarding what needs to be produced. A specialized control centre is required to facilitate these exchanges, and the language in which they are conducted requires extensive research prior to implementation. Consequently, the use of automated factories may only be practical for empires that conduct large amounts of research. Conversely, empires with minimal research, but much existing production capacity, may find other production-enhancing methods more practical.

PRO_HEAVY_MINING_I
Heavy Mining Processors

PRO_HEAVY_MINING_I_DESC
When increased minerals production is the only concern, no environmental damage considerations exist, and the environment itself is conducive, partially automated bulk mining activities can be optimal. Significant processing capacity is required, however, necessitating the use of centralized ore-processing facilities.

PRO_ENVIRO_MINING_I
Environmentally-Conscious Mining

PRO_ENVIRO_MINING_I_DESC
'''Many mining methods are incompatible with highly populous planets, due to environmental damage. Careful consideration of Planetary Ecology is required to permit limited mining techniques to be employed without such downsides. Minerals production is less per unit of population than more extreme methods, however additional population may somewhat offset this. Additionally, these limited techniques are only applicable to worlds capable of supporting high populations: Superb or Optimal for a given race.

Increases minerals production by +2 per 10 population on primary mining focused worlds.
Increases minerals production by +1 per 10 population on primary balanced and secondary mining focused worlds.
Multiple focus balances are cumulative: primary and secondary mining focus provides +3 to mineral production per 10 population.'''

PRO_ASTEROID_MINE
Asteroid Mining

PRO_ASTEROID_MINE_DESC
Mineral resource extraction from subplanetoid-sized bodies involves challenges, and provides opportunities quite distinct from those of full-fledged planets. Lacking sufficient mass to self-liquify and differentiate, asteroids can provide much easier access to some heavier elements, and lack of a gravity can make extraction for use in space much more efficient. Conversely, the limited size of each source asteroid requires fully portable self-sufficient extraction facilities. As well, the challenges of any microgravity environment must be overcome, requiring redesign of many traditional methods. The initial implementation of asteroid mining techniques yields moderate gains to mineral production in systems with suitable asteroid belts to exploit. Increased mining output occurs on all planets in system, allowing planets with environments normally difficult to mine, which often also allow larger populations, to produce large amounts of minerals per unit of population. Normally large mining output per unit population is limited to low-population capacity worlds, limiting actual mineral output.

PRO_ORBITAL_MINE
Orbital Mining

PRO_ORBITAL_MINE_DESC
On solid, habitable planets, traditional bulk surface mining is effective and relatively efficient. For gas giants and terrestrial planets that are unable to support a sizable population however, the ability to extract usable minerals with space-based facilities is far more practical. A primary challenge to this method is overcoming the planetary gravity well, but once this is accomplished, vast new sources of minerals become available. As well, specialized resources on uninhabitable planets become accessible for the first time.

PRO_CORE_MINE
Deep Core Mining

PRO_CORE_MINE_DESC
The pressure and temperatures in terrestrial planet mantles and cores create large quantities of crystal and mineral formations that only appear on upper crust layers due to vulcanism. The lower atmospheric layers and core materials of gaseous planets contain even more exotic materials, in greater concentrations. Accessing these regions to extract the materials is difficult and treacherous, but eminently rewarding, compared to traditional surface mining activities.

PRO_ART_BLACK_HOLE
Artificial Black Hole

PRO_ART_BLACK_HOLE_DESC
By carefully collapsing a singularity in a distant solar orbit, a conveniently located source of unlimited power would be possible. This would be a highly expensive and dangerous task, but with far reaching benefits.

PRO_EXOBOTS
Exobots

PRO_EXOBOTS_DESC
Exobots, as they become commonly known, are a marvel of form meets function. They are robots designed to fulfill nearly any manufacturing job, in fields as wide ranging as electronics to large-scale construction. Easily mass produced, they serve best on colonies that lack the infrastructure and work force to dedicate to specialized factories. Every colony receives a standard issue team of exobots, boosting their construction during the early development phase.

PRO_FUSION_PLANTS
Fusion Plants

PRO_FUSION_PLANTS_DESC
Fusion plants, while expensive to produce and maintain, easily pay for themselves on industrialized worlds with ever increasing power demands. Reliance on old fission based nuclear plants will gradually become a thing of the past.

PRO_HYPER_DAM
Hyperspatial Dam

PRO_HYPER_DAM_DESC
Once the greatest fear of N-dimensional physicists, now the noblest goal. To deliberately create a hyperspatial rift between our universe and the next, but inside a dimensional bubble, safely separate from known space-time. Once this is accomplished, it would be a relatively simple matter to tap into the enormous flow of energy that would travel across the rift.

PRO_MINI_SUN
Miniature Sun

PRO_MINI_SUN_DESC
A magnetically contained, self-perpetuating fusion reaction could be safely built and placed in coincident orbit above a planet's night facing hemisphere. This new star would dominate the night sky, providing constant twilight on its planet-facing hemisphere, while its outward facing hemisphere would be harnessed as a massive fusion power plant.

PRO_MINING_ENGINEERING
Mining Engineering

PRO_MINING_ENGINEERING_DESC
'''Applying the concepts of Planetary Geology allows effective extraction of minerals from near the surface of planets. By identifying the probable locations and ideal extraction methods, efficiency and total possible production are increased. As well, proper planning and analysis increase mine safety and longevity.

Bonuses depend on planet type:
Barren and Inferno receive +4 per 10 population of planet at mining focused worlds.
Desert, Radiated and Toxic receive +2.
Tundra and Terran receive +1.
Ocean and Swap receive no bonus.

Large research cost and time and lack of building-production requirement to receive effect make technology attractive for research-focused empires, but less useful for production-focused. Bonuses are largest on low-population planet types, making overall benefit small until future advances can increase the populations of these planet types.'''

PRO_INDUSTRY_CENTRE_I
Industrial Centres

PRO_INDUSTRY_CENTRE_I_DESC
'''Coordinating industrial activity between planets and star systems can be effectively accomplished at large centralized complexes.

Facility's large cost and build time, as well as significant future range growth potential, require strong planning to produce in location with ideal future utility. Large industrial benefits come with large up-front cost, in both production resources and time, but with minimal research prerequisites, making facility useful for high-production strategies, but unattractive for research-focused empires.'''

PRO_ENERGY_CONV
Energy Conversion

PRO_ENERGY_CONV_DESC
At appropriate scales and under specific conditions, matter-energy becomes a unified phenomenon. Applied at larger scales, complete control over the structure of matter and the dynamics of energy becomes possible, as does the interchange between the two. Transmutation and replication, at limited scales, become possible. However, despite the enormous rest mass energy equivalence of matter, converting directly to energy for bulk power generation is generally less effective than comparatively simple fusion generation.

PRO_NEUTRONIUM_EXTRACTION
Neutronium Extraction

PRO_NEUTRONIUM_EXTRACTION_DESC
The core of a neutron star consists of degenerate neutron matter, compressed by gravity to a density far greater than the heaviest normal matter. This exotic material has numerous applications once extracted from the star, allowing production of otherwise impossible structures and ship parts.

SHP_BASE_SHIPYARD
