The time it takes to complete different [[Research|research]] actions can be modified in various ways. The most notable one is upgrading your [[Reduced Research Time|'''reduced research time''']] stat, which will affect every action in the Research menu with the exception of [[Scientists]] travelling to and from [[Planets|planets]]. Other ways include paying [[Diamonds]] or watching [[Rewarded Ads|ads]] to instantly complete one {{research action or completing [[Daily Quests]] and collecting [[Red Bacteria]] to reduce the remaining time for all active research actions. Cancelling a research action will cause all the progress go to waste and return the [[Scientists]] to the player.}}
