Hey @RogerBW, I don’t think you can have a 2nd Research Project yet… only 1 Project per Science Node?
14.1.1 Maximum Number of Projects
The number of Research Nodes you currently Control is the
maximum number of Active Projects you may have. You may
launch Projects even if doing so would temporarily put you over
your maximum number of Projects, but you have to immediately
discard enough Projects to keep you within your limit.
(Which means you still have 1 Command you can spend on something!)
