2,000What Gravitic Sensors does
Modifiers as the game prints them, from the technology's modifier block; then the unlock lines its research card shows.
- Unlocks Component: Gravitic SensorsGravitic Sensors These sensors have been tuned to look for any gravitational changes in space, such as those produced by the presence of a starship.
What Gravitic Sensors unlocks
Everything in the game files that lists this technology as a prerequisite; “condition” marks objects that check for it in their conditions instead.

How to get Gravitic Sensors
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 85) and its weight modifiers. Tier 2 opens after 6 tier 1 technologies of the same area.
It needs no other technology.
What Gravitic Sensors leads to
Technologies that list it as a prerequisite.

How do I get Gravitic Sensors in Stellaris?
It has no prerequisite: it can be drawn as one of the 3 physics research options once tier 2 is open.
What does Gravitic Sensors do?
It unlocks Gravitic Sensors (ship component), Gravity-Attuned Sensory Organs (ship component), Arkship Listening Post (starbase building), Listening Post (starbase building) and Arkship Sensor Array (starbase module). It leads to Detection Array, Scientific Arkships, Speculative Hyperlane Breaching, Subspace Imaging Array and Subspace Sensors.
What is the ID of Gravitic Sensors?
The technology's ID is tech_sensors_2. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_sensors_2 (Stellaris 4.5.2).
How much does Gravitic Sensors cost?
2,000 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.
