Advanced Ecological Engendering (B7)- in our time on Planet many things have been learned through out constant terraforming attempts, now it is time to apply these lessons, the Super Former, a former specifically designed to alter Planet’s environment, that applies all the lessons we have learned from our terraforming experiences in order to create a faster, more efficient, and environmentally friendly former (doubles rate of terraforming);
Applied Relativity (D5)- we move closer to a complete understanding of the universe, no longer do we look to the sky and stare at the stars attempting to understand them, now we look to the infinitesimally small for the answers about existence, advanced relativity is one step closer to a quantum theory of gravity, and this a unified field theory; scientists hope to construct a Supercollider on a scale never seen before, one that will allow them to prove deeper into the world of the atom than ever before (research output doubles at base);
Neural Grafting (C4)- man and machine are becoming one as time passes, and our societies dependence of computer is growing continuously, this dependency may become even greater as scientists ponder the notion of linking the human brain directly to a machine, the potential increase in neural activity that could be educed in the human brain are limitless, sparking discussion of perhaps creating a psi defense against mind worms, the proposed Neural Amplifier would link several candidates who exhibit sings of telepathy, and through the machine their telepathic potential would be amplified considerably, enough to mount a successful defense against psi attacks (psi defense up 50%); though the technology is not without its dark side, there are fears that Bioenhancement Centers would be used to create super-soldiers that are perfectly loyal and obedient, without fear or emotion, in effect the perfect killing machine (all military units receive 2 moral upgrades, +1 lifecycle bonus);
Organic Superlubricant (C7)- aside form civilian applications in construction of this new technology, there has been rumors floating around the labs that it might be possible to construct a [i]Fusion Laser[/u] (firepower: 10) with organic superlubricant by reducing the heavy containment required for fusion to take place, this would effectively produce a weapon capable of releasing superheated plasma from a source as small as a handgun;
Planetary Economics (B7)- through a better understanding of planet we may learn how to use its resources more efficiently, or so that would be the claim by the advocates of research into Planetary Economics; engineers and scientists discussing the potential implications of a greater understanding of planetary ecology have indicated the we would be able to create Hybrid Forests taking the best of Earth plants and combining this with the great capacity for nitrogen fixation of native plants, resulting in an increased nutrient and energy production for forests, these same hybrid forest would provide our citizens with a lush reserve in which to spend their time in (psych up 50%), as well as the increased energy production combined with the capital produced from recreational use of hybrid forests would provide for an extensive economic boom (economy up 50%); furthermore researchers state that the ecological initiatives already in place thought Tree Frams would effectively counter the ecological damage caused by terraforming; though there have also been rumors that this research could be used in a social engenering project dubbed the Ascent Virtues to increase social tolerance for police use, as well as the peoples material expectations (police +1; pop. Limit of bases up by 2);
Silksteel Alloys (B6)- silksteel, so dubbed as to pay homage to the arachnids by whom this new engendering innovation was inspired by, holds great industrial potential as superstructures of grand scales could not be constructed using relatively small amounts of silksteel; one of the most practical applications of this alloy, according to experts, would be military; Silksteel Armor (strength: 4) offers our troops a distinct advantage on the battlefield as they could withstand a considerable greater amount of enemy fire, military analysts have stated that the key to winning our war against the Hive might not be in firepower, but effectively holding onto territory we capture, and defending ourselves; &
Superstring Theory (C5)- a theory which has its origins rooted in the 1980’s, an attempt to finally unify quantum mechanics with the incompatable general relativity, received little serious attention in its time, but the recent developments of better observational techniques, and the discovery of the graviton as predicted by string theory have reawakened interest in this field; scientists from around the globe hold great hope that superstring theory will one of our last steps towards a unified field theory, there has even been discussion among the scientific community about military applications for string theory, the theoretical Chaos Gun (firepower: 8), as it has been dubbed by researchers in New Aployton, could offer us a striking advantage in our conflict against the Hive.
