High risk research

High risk research involves conducting research that has a large potential reward, but also has a significant potential to fail or prove not-fruitful.

High risk research can include research and technologies that may only be theoretically possible and may in fact actually be impossible to create. Part of high risk research may include simply researching whether or not something is even actually possible.
