Where fromtournaments

A booster is a temporary buff: you activate it and it lasts 4 hours. You can keep up to 3 boosters active at the same time. Boosters stack with permanent bonuses (research, senators, anomalies), and this one has several power levels.

In the game code, "Dust Detector" is separate boosters №22–24 of the ExpedStarOre family with values 0.00025 / 0.0005 / 0.001 (boostersList). While the booster is active, its value is added to the ExpedStarOre factor; when the timer runs out, the effect switches off automatically.

Boosters are won as rewards for places in tournaments. Flexible monthly premium accelerators are a separate thing — see the Shop. Where boosters count: Expedition, Tournaments.
