As of 1575 AD (aka the beginning of Term 8), the remaining techs available for research, extortion, purchase, etc... are as follows:

Note: the "cost" figures for tech advances are the relative costs as outlined in the editor. They do not represent the number of beakers needed to discover that advance, but rather should be used as a guide to determine the relative value of each advance and the relative time needed to discover each advance.
 
Congrats, FortyJ!

We might as well start up some modern-age discussion.

The first tech we need is fission, simply so we can build the UN and prevent a diplo victory by an AI civ.
