A good early strategy is sending out colonist ships to form small colonies, if only to find those strange artifacts that boost your research in a particular tech.
But it's been a long time since I used that strategy. Is there any way to affect that outcome? Are more colonists more likely to discover something, or discover more? Or will a single colony of only 100 colonists produce the same result at 100,000?
