----
===Communication===
Conventional radio does not work here. Develop working alternative that takes advantage of the local radiation. You'll get contact to other factions and much more information about them.
Also your own bases can communicate more efficiently with each other, so number of bases you have is not causing as much unhappiness as before.
----
===Composites===
Stronger materials mean stronger armors.
----

----
===Data Storage===
* Allows Archive.
Needs to archive all the media produced for and by politics drive development of better data storage methods.
----
===Deep Pumping===
We can pump water from the depths of the crust. We no longer need any of the adjacent tiles to have water in order to build Greenhouses.
----

* Allows Radar Tower.
Not really an conventional radar, but named so as it fills similar role. It's based on Deneb 7 radiation and works on this planet.
----
===Dual Government===

* Allows Dual Democracy.
Government should consider both Humans and Native aliens.
----
===Escape===
* Allows Space Component.

----
===Faction Government===
* Allows Communism.
* Allows Democracy.
Familiar government types adjusted to local environment.
----
===Faction Politics===
Human relations in this situation, where various factions have been forced to this strange planet, are quite unlike anything seen before. It very well deserves small study. Maybe we then can co-operate with other factions.
----
===Food Regeneration===
If what we harvest grows back faster, we get more food. It's simple as that.
Protein Houses tiles get additional 50% food production bonus.
----
===Force Channeling===
* Allows Force Fortress (with Land terrain and "Settlers" units).
Radiation is obstacle for us, but now also an resource. We know how to channel Deneb 7's power to our own use.

===Low-Level Orbit===
With further advances in antigravitics we are able to enter orbit even if we still are prisoners of the force field surronding Deneb 7.
Makes Antigrav Ports more efficient. They can airlift three units instead of just one.
----
===Maglev===
* Allows Maglev (with Highway, "Settlers" units, and Land terrain).
Using Deneb 7's own power available everywhere land travel speeds can reach levels never seen before.
----
===Manufacturing===
* Allows Factory.
It takes some research to even make basic manufacturing in this alien world.
----
===Martial Law===
Effective martial law requires that we can react quickly, to immediately send forces where they are needed.
Maximum martial law for cities with Secret Police is increased from two to five.
----
===Mental Powers===
I WANT
One way to resist radiation is willpower.
Simply knowing this tech allows cities to grow 3 sizes bigger.
----
===Mining===
* Allows Central Mine (with Land terrain).
Earthly mining technologies were not sufficient for heavy scale mining on this planet.
----
===Modified Spitter===
We already know how to make modifications to alien lifeforms. Let's improve spitters.
----
===Mood Manipulation===
* Allows Mood Center.
People are happy if they believe that they are happy.
----
===Naval Superiority===
It's no longer enough to replicate old Earth technologies. We want superiority.
----
===New Frontier===
We finally fully realize that we are not limited to what we had as part of Earth empire.
Increases max tax/science/lux rate by 10%.
----
===Ocean Cities===
* Allows Oceanic Downtown (with Oceanic terrain).
Cities on ocean. Why not?
----
===Organic Structures===
The art of making armor from alien organisms resistant to Deneb 7's strange radiation allows us to enter new areas.
Cities can work radiating tiles.
----
===Paradrop===
It's easy to fall all the way from orbit, but to hit small target and to be ready to act immediately after landing are hard for aliens. They need extra mental powers for that.
----
===Personal Contact===
With Virtual Reality it's like actor actually was there with you. When you allow actors to teleport to meet their audience, maybe she is.
Stealth Spies protecting your cities against enemy Spies will get 40% bonus. It also gets 40% harder for enemies to sabotage specific buildings.
----
===Protein Modifications===

Based on our Tactics teaching techniques, we can teach our specialists trick or two.
Output of all specialists doubles.
----
===Spitter Control===
Alien lifeforms spitting solid objects are interesting research subject.
----
===Stealth Module===
Even when we know this technology making our units invisible, it's far too expensive to be used for armies. It's perfect for individuals in espionage mission.
----
===Strong Force===
* Allows Tower (with Land terrain and "Settlers" units).
We are quite capable of making different energy fields out of radiation. We can still improve, though.
Allows Engineers to build Towers instead of Force Fortresses.

===Synthetic Food===
This is completely new, and extremely efficient, way of making synthetic food.
As their food consumption is no longer an problem, we can grow bigger, meaner, aliens.
----
===Teleportation===
We can teleport relatively small objects relatively short distances. This reduces problem of not being able to fly.

We can tame monsters suitable for war. These might be relatively weak, but they are the only thing that can wage war on radiating areas for the time being.
----
===Water Flow===
We understand Deneb 7 fluid dynamics and can get water to flow where we want. Building Greenhouses becomes possible in tiles adjacent to cities and rivers.
