Development Ministry
The Development Ministry oversees the construction of buildings on your planet. You can monitor your build queue and subsidize the construction of buildings through the use of Essentia to build them faster. The higher the level of the building the more buildings you can have in your queue. The number of projects that can be placed in the queue is the level of the ministry plus 1.

Gas Giant Settlement Platform
The Gas Giant Settlement Platform allows settlement of a gas giant when this would otherwise not be possible. In order to upgrade platforms you'll need a good supply of structural minerals such as rutile, chromite, bauxite, magnetite, beryl, or goethite.

Oversight Ministry
The Oversight Ministry reduces the amount of time buildings take to upgrade through better project management. All buildings will be built/upgraded 3% faster per level of the Oversight Ministry. Like most building except the university and genetics lab, the effect only takes place on the planet which the Oversight Ministry is built on.

Subspace Supply Depot
The subspace supply depot (SSD) is an amazing technology created by Lacuna Expanse Corp. Only they know exactly how it works, but it enables you to build a fledgling colony much faster than you could on your own.

Terraforming Platform
The Terraforming Platform is deployed from a Terraforming Platform Ship. Once deployed it allows you to inhabit planets that your species couldn't normally survive on.

University
The University is a place of higher learning and knowledge for your people and is the key to growth for your empire. Other buildings cannot be upgraded higher than the university level plus 1. Your university's level is empire wide where construction level of buildings on other planets is concerned. Many of the more powerful buildings that can be constructed require a very high level University. The University is also a source of happiness for empire. Note: If you do lose you University for some reason by Demolishing it, Abandoning the planet it is on, or should it be lowered in level because you downgrade it or because of the spy mission Appropriate Technology, your empire will still maintain the same University level of technology that you had before the loss. To increase your University Level you will need to rebuild up to the level that you had before and then continue to level the University 1 level at a time. It used to be possible that you could take control of a planet with a level 29 University even if you only had a university of for example level 10 and then upgrade the University a single level and suddenly jump from University level 10 to University level 30. This is no longer the case. To increase your University level now from 10 you would need to upgrade a University to level 11. There is no way to lower the University level of your empire currently it game. It can be done by a game admin but will likely only happen in the case of rules violations. Once your University level reaches 30 it is currently impossible to increase the level further. Some players like to keep their University at this point because of the happiness it produces despite the high maintenance costs. Others keep it in hopes of eventual higher level tech coming out, or just as a memento of their hard work. Each university level above 25 will give +1 to the maximum level a normal resource building can go; for a max of +5 at university level 30 (the university itself is not required to maintain this bonus). Added to the maximum stockpile bonus, that means the capitol's normal resource buildings can reach level 30 while those on other planets can reach level 20.
