 '''Portable Star Labs''' are the method by which new [[Star_Recipes|Star Recipes]] are created for use in the [[Test of Pyrotechnics]]. Using a Portable Star Lab is not required for either the principle or the Test of Pyrotechnics.  It is an independent tool that any Egyptian can use to contribute to the variety of stars that are available to everyone. Here's how.
-Each [[Technologies|University]] starts with the same two basic [[Star_Recipes|Star Recipes]], and can gain additional recipes using Star Labs. Each [[Technologies|University]] that has opened the [[Pyrotechnic Mortar Construction]] technology will distribute approximately two '''Portable Star Labs''' to players per week, apparently at random intervals. After use, a lab can be turned in at any University that has opened [[Pyrotechnic Mortar Construction]] (note: not necessarily the one from which it was received). Once a SINGLE [[Technologies|University]] has received seven labs, the scientists will select one of the seven submitted stars, and players will then be able to learn that [[Star_Recipes|Star Recipe]] from that [[Technologies|University]], and only that [[Technologies|University]].

After use, a lab can be turned in at any University that has opened [[Pyrotechnic Mortar Construction]] (note: not necessarily the one from which it was received).

 Star labs are pre-loaded with materials to fire 60 shots. After each shot, the owner is given the option of naming the shot that was just fired, selecting the shot that was just fired as the best so far, re-firing the last shot without changing it, or firing a new random shot. Players other than the owner can register as watchers of the display, and will be able to see the stars as they are launched, and read the costs of the most recently-launched star. The owner of the lab has sole discretion over which star is selected as the "best" - it is not a voting process - but typically the owners solicit input from the watchers and make a collaborative decision. Once a final decision has been made and named, the lab can be turned in at a [[Technologies|University]]. At this point, the number of watchers becomes important: this number is a weighting factor on how likely it is that that particular [[Star_Recipes|Star Design]] will be selected, once 7 total have been turned in. (Example: six labs are turned in with 1 watcher, and a seventh is turned in with 14 watchers. There will be a 70% chance that the seventh lab is the one selected)
