Two allied or declared friendly players can enter into a Research Agreement to get a tech boost for a chosen tech, if both players have researched Scientific Theory. As a part of forming this deal, a specific technology must be agreed upon. The number of turns it will take to complete the research will depend on the current research rates of both users. If either player earns the boost or tech by any other means, the agreement ends and the other player will get the boost immediately.
