How to get Dark Matter Propulsion
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 1) and its weight modifiers. Tier 5 opens after 6 tier 4 technologies of the same area. As a rare technology it is drawn less often, and some rare ones only appear after an event, a relic or a special project.

}Dark Matter Propulsion: questions
How do I get Dark Matter Propulsion in Stellaris?
Research Impulse Thrusters first (4 technologies in the whole chain); then Dark Matter Propulsion can be drawn as one of the 3 engineering research options. It is a rare technology: its draw weight is low, and some are only offered after an event, a relic or a special project.
What does Dark Matter Propulsion do?
It unlocks Dark Matter Stellar Motor Organs (ship component) and Dark Matter Thrusters (ship component).
What is the ID of Dark Matter Propulsion?
The technology's ID is tech_dark_matter_propulsion. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_dark_matter_propulsion (Stellaris 4.5.2).
How much does Dark Matter Propulsion cost?
70,000 engineering research before modifiers. In game the cost grows with empire size (+0.2% per point above the base, common/defines) and the galaxy's tech cost setting.
