 +  * Samples, Objects and Artefacts are all associated with one of the [[[[Professional Skills#​Etheric,​ Corporeal & Life Science|Science Specialities]]
 +    * Research Points of the relevant type are required to research these objects.
 +  * Artefacts tend to have multiple tiers that you can research to unlock their powers and understand them more.
 +    * Most Artefacts have a tier that will show you the rest of the tiers and how much research it takes to get to them. Until you get to this tier and Unlock the Research Progression,​ you will be researching in the dark.
 +  * Samples typically require only a single Research Point to fully research - this will give you some information about them and some Keyword Properties that you can use to theorise Inventions.
 +  * Some other objects that can be researched may or may not have tiers.
  
 Assigning Research Points to objects allows you to learn more about them, and in some cases gradually unlock their abilities.

 If the character you have assigned points to makes a discovery, you do not learn that discovery automatically by assisting - they will need to Teach you what they have discovered after subsequent events. If the character you have assigned points to makes a discovery, you do not learn that discovery automatically by assisting - they will need to Teach you what they have discovered after subsequent events.
