How to get Dark Matter Drawing
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 50) and its weight modifiers. Tier 3 opens after 6 tier 2 technologies of the same area.

In the game
This exotic substance has many properties that seemingly defy the laws of physics. Harvestable concentrations can only be found near Black Holes or in certain nebulas.

}Dark Matter Drawing: questions
How do I get Dark Matter Drawing in Stellaris?
Research Tachyon Sensors first (3 technologies in the whole chain); then Dark Matter Drawing can be drawn as one of the 3 physics research options.
What does Dark Matter Drawing do?
It unlocks Dark Matter (resource). It leads to Dark Matter Detection and Stellar Engine.
What is the ID of Dark Matter Drawing?
The technology's ID is tech_mine_dark_matter. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_mine_dark_matter (Stellaris 4.5.2).
How much does Dark Matter Drawing cost?
6,000 physics 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.
