A blueprint is a digital reproduction of a technical drawing that allows the crafting of items employing a fabricator. Once acquired they are permanently added into the players inventory.[1]
Acquisition
Blueprints can be purchased, earned through mission rewards or reputation affinity and in loot crates.[1] The reason that official blueprints can be found is that by the 30th century it was extremely difficult for large manufacturers to police knock-off products that were watering down their own brand recognition. Offering official blue prints ensured ensure that those products met their own base specifications. Still, it's not a free-for-all. Those blueprints have heavy data-protection on them to prevent widespread sharing. Still, most of the general population are content to purchase items rather than attempt printing them for themselves. Even more in regards to items as complex as a ship.[2]
Research and upgrade
Known blueprints can be upgraded through research employing a Research Databank, which will unlock better versions of the blueprint. The access to lower quality (and cost) blueprints of the same item is not lost.[1]
