How do I use those artifacts? It says put a lab on a star base near the artifact but I haven't found where the labs come from. They are not a star base option that I have seen.

You need to research Xeno Archeology in the Engineering tree to unlock the starbase module you need.

You have to research the archeology tech path--for Terrans it is in the Engineering tree after Interstellar Survey.

Stardock has already acknowledged that they have errors in the calculations from artifacts and they have "corrected them internally" and the fixes will be out in the next patch.

Yep, it was in the Friday steam. I am a programmer and I hate code review/qa, but seriously?

Thanks. I only had time to watch about half the stream, so I missed that.

I have no worries about things like this--I know the dev team is working hard and things like this get missed, but that's a large part of why I'm playing the early access--to help them ferret out this kind of stuff.
