First Impressions - and Scientific help

Hi, all

 

I just bought the Early Access version, and am playing through the tutorials. 

 

First off, I'm really impressed with how pretty everything looks.

 

I found the explanation for how expansive, robotic, and scavenger work to be perfectly understandable.  However, scientific has me a bit confused.

 

First off, the tutorial message advises building hydroponics on Oxygen resources, which is not possible for obvious reasons.

 

But my real question comes from how the game deals with the Scientific ability and dual-input factories.  It's not clear at all, and a little guidance on the matter would help quite a bit.
