How to get Shrinkspace Depot
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 20) 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.
It needs no other technology.
What Shrinkspace Depot leads to
Technologies that list it as a prerequisite.
In the game
The depot influences a portion of subspace where the distance between molecules is reduced, effectively shrinking anything stored there. Living beings are forbidden from entering it.
