	Research points are used to unlock new technologies and can be acquired through a few different sources, the most profitable being Xenoarcheology, which is the process of analyzing and activating different randomly generated artifacts that can be found via events, [[salvage]] debris, and by ordering them from cargo. Most artifacts have more than one Stimulus-Reaction combination (known scientifically as Nodes), so make sure to scan and activate as many of them as you can before selling it to cargo, or keeping it around because its effects are cool enough to warrant keeping.

	Another highly valuable source of research points is [[Anomalous Research]]. Most R&D departments come equipped with an Anomaly Generator, Anomalous Particle Emitters (A.P.E.), and Anomaly Vessels, which are used to spawn, interact with, and generate points from anomalies respectively. Anomalies can come in different forms, ranging from raging balls of pink-hot matter to electrically-discharging motes of light to radioactive gravity wells, so make sure to wear some protective gear while studying them.

	The four disciplines into which technologies are categorized are ''Industrial'', ''Arsenal'', ''Experimental'', and ''Civilian Services'', with the first three being aimed towards the [[Engineering]], [[Security]], and [[Science]] departments respectively, while Civilian Services mainly covers [[Service]], with a handful of technologies aimed at [[Medical]] and [[Cargo]]. A few upgrades benefiting [[Cargo]] are also under the ''Industrial'' discipline.

A few upgrades benefiting [[Cargo]] are also under the ''Industrial'' discipline.

	Technologies are ranked into three progressive ~~tiers - 1~~, 2, and 3. Generally, higher tier technologies unlock stronger and better equipment than lower tiers. To research higher tier technologies, researchers must increase the tier of the respective discipline, done by researching the majority of technologies available in the prior tier. For example, researching the majority of tier 1 Industrial technologies will allow scientists to the research tier 2 Industrial technologies, but not tier 2 Arsenal, Experimental, or Civilian Services technologies.

	Assuming they have enough points, the Science department can research all tier 1 and tier 2 technologies, but increasing a discipline to tier 3 makes it become the department's ''Main Discipline'' - generally you can only have one tier 3 discipline. It is possible to get tier 3 technologies from other disciplines, either through gambling with the Technology Disk Terminal or by acquiring multiple R&D servers, as the Main Discipline is only a per-server limit.

If the department loses its server, all unlocked technologies will be lost and all connected fabricators will lose the ability to craft items associated with these technologies.
