Description
Gravitational compression technologies allow the creation of the most sophisticated and destructive weapons systems. The principle of practical use of gravitational waves was discovered thanks to many years of research by a group of imperial scientists, and later spread in all areas of human activity, including, of course, military. The potential of gravitational waves is huge, and further study of this technology can lead to new scientific breakthroughs in this field.
What it gives

| 43 | +107.5% | 138 000 000 |
| 50 | +125% | 196 000 000 |
Reference levels are shown. The study price is in Science points (values, they grow with the level). It can be instantly sped up with Dark Matter.
Science price and calculator
How much science each level needs:
Calculator: time and instant speed-up
Enter your science and choose a level — we'll show how long the research takes and how much dark matter is needed to finish it instantly.
Formulas verified: time = science price ÷ your science per hour (but no less than price ÷ 5), divided by research speed. Instant completion is calculated by the dark matter for the remaining time. Overlock multiplies the science price (and thus the time and dark matter): each overlock level is pricier.
Overclock (honing)
After the maximum level, the research can be “honed” with star ore — this gives a super-bonus.
Damage of Gravitational Gun · first reset 150 star ore
Each reset adds the bonus on top of the max level; the star-ore price grows with every reset.
