You can research Outpost Development Research Projects at a Research Lab. These can be found in your ship, outposts, and major settlements in the game like New Atlantis.
Once you're at the Research Lab, you can do the following.
There are eight Outpost Development Research Project trees in the game. The first tier of each tree is already unlocked the first time you access the Research Lab terminal.
You need to complete the pre-requisite Research Projects in a tree in order to unlock all succeeding Research Projects in that tree.
Outpost Development research projects unlock modules that you can construct for your outposts. Outposts are modular base camps you can build throughout the galaxy using the resources you collect. They can be used as storage, your home on different planets, a base to mine resources, or a crafting and research hub.
