Rocket Reports "Local Colony Lacks Astronomy, Orbital Research" After Launch

Whenever I launch a rocket to do orbital research, the game reports that "Local Colony Lacks Astronomy, Orbital Researcher", even when the assigned duplicant has the skills.  If I save and reload, the message goes away and I can perform research.  I am playing sandbox mode.

Yep, i'm also encountering this issue. No way to continue orbital research as it has been research and unlocked, but the orbital microlab keeps saying "Local colony lacks orbital researcher". I have various dupes with the skill however.

I found it often said this when plastic isn't available, as it requires plastic the same way basic requires dirt and advanced requires water.
