Mr. President, for your review
SCIENCE OFFICE
We are currently in the Industrial age in 1325 A.D.
Our most advanced main branch techs are Corporation, Refinery, Replaceable Parts, Electronics, and Radio.
We are currently reseraching
Steel which at current science rate will would be completed in 1335AD (2 turns).
Following the discovery of
Steel, we should reserach
Combustion in 4 turns if war werrious levels allows.
To close out the Industrial Era, we should reserach
Mass Production followed by
Motorized Transportation , and finally
Flight , in 4 turns each if war weireness allows.
I suggest the president and FAM maintain a 2+ tech lead over leading AIs, going into the modern era.
Judging my the majority sentiment that spaceship is the way to go, but I think we need to cover the defensive and offensive needs of the nation, I suggest that the President direct or reasearch as follows:
To see other tech options, I believe joncnunn postred some alternate

]"fast track" research paths. Included here for your reference, but...
I am suggesting the following Modern Age Tech Path as it sees to the defensive needs of this nation while priortizing our space race.
1. Fission
2. Computers
3. Ecology
4. Synethic Fibers
5. Rocketry
6. Space Flight
7. Super Conductor
8. Satellites
9. Nuclear Power
10. Laser
11. Miniturazation
12. Genetics
13. Steath
14. Smart Weapons
15. Integrated Defense
16. Recyling
17. Robotics
18. Future Tech 1 to N
Fission is one of the only thing that is floating here depending when we really want to research it in relationship to the other civs and when we want to discover aluminum with rocketry

[edited] changed MA tech order. Will update the first half later.
