*[[Dark Matter Institute ]] technologies

Evolved Bacteria have a default 10% [[Evolved Bacteria#Black Hole Survival Probability|chance to survive a Black Hole]]. This can be increased through [[Research#Bacteria Irradiation|Bacteria Irradiation]]. Before entering a Black Hole, the player will also be prompted to secure up to two Evolved Bacteria that will definitely survive. Only Evolved Bacteria of Level 2 and above can be secured.

Entering a Black Hole will grant [[Resources#Dark Matter|'''Dark Matter''']], which can be spent in the '''[[Dark Matter Institute]]'''.

The amount of Dark Matter depends on how many [[Resources#Gene Strands|'''Gene Strands''']] a player has.

It makes no difference whether the particular Gene Strand has been obtained from the [[Evolved Bacteria]] effect or it is obtained as a base drop from killed [[Planets|planet]] population. However, Gene Strands that have been spent on [[Upgrades|upgrades ]] do not count towards how much Dark Matter is earned.
