Thought of an idea of researches that can only be obtained from exploring other asteroids via rocketry

Technologies such as:
Androids/robots, less efficient than dupes but don't require sleep/food/relaxing they have their own levelling system or they can be set to mimic stats of a dupe you have but with a penalty.
Teleports/portals, dupes will travel through these places rather than walking far far away wasting a lot of time in commute.
Atomic electricity, self-explanatory I guess.
Cybernetic parts, upgrade your dupes with various perk upgrades and new abilities by transforming them into a half-human half-robot. 
Open doors for many other ideas, think of it like exploring alien technology and etc.

We can find a small shield generator as an artifact frm space. Only use now is to put it on the pedestal but maybe in the future we could use it to research shield generators and protect from meteors without those heavy steel doors.
