Someone let the Research nerds out again and this time they've boarded all of your Prometheus-class Star Crafts. We managed to trap them in the cockpit, but they're refusing to leave, so for now if you have hyperlane data, feel free to chat with them there, where they'll happily process the data for you. In the meantime, we've found replacements for those who abandoned their usual posts.

(TL;DR - Hyperlane Researchers have been added to the Prometheus and can be found in the cockpit as well as anywhere else you'd normally find them.)
