Corrections:
As mentioned in the video, the research trees are changing a bit. In short, as it stands right now, Scrapping is now available for all ships from the start, Jump Drives are moving to Engineering, and Physics will gain Databases, an ability that lets you hold more tech cards, which replaces the previous system of how many tech cards you could hold.
