Dialogue

First meeting

Researchingway: Welcome to the interplanetary research station, where we analyze exploration data and develop new tools for the betterment of the initiative.
Researchingway: If you would like to take part in our research, it's simple: complete stellar missions to fill up your dataset, then report back.
Researchingway: Our cosmic tools are still prototypes for now, but the more data you bring in for analysis, the more we'll be able to improve them.
Researchingway: Check your exotablet─all the details are there!
System: You may now participate in cosmic research. Progress is displayed on your exotablet under Cosmic Research.
System: For more detailed information, check the Exploration Guide.
System: You've gained access to Cosmic Research!

Report research data.

If you have completed the dataset in your exotablet for your current class

???

If the dataset in your exotablet is not complete for your current class

You can do better than that, surely?  Go and complete more stellar missions.  I can't work with anything less than a full dataset.
...And before you say "that's too vague," all the exact figures you could want are right there on your exotablet.
I realize it's a lot of work, but just think of what you'll gain in return: my boundless appreciation!  And a cosmic tool, I suppose.

Inquire about cosmic tools.

(Choose a tool from the list if you don't have one for your current class.)

Keep in mind that this tool reflects the current stage of our research.  I eagerly await your next report!

Small talk.

If you want a cosmic tool, you'll need to bring me data, and lots of it!  Your exotablet has all the relevant details.
