Is it normal to only get a few types of scientist? I'm about 25 years into a game and I've yet to get a single Sensors scientist. It was a long time before I got a couple of the others as well (15-20 years).
Was wondering if it was just luck of the draw when new scientists get created. For reference, I have over 50 scientists.

Completely normal. I didn't get and Construction Scientists until year 30. It is all in the luck of the game.

More academies will get you more scientists, a few at the start seriously helps research in the long run.

I thought that might be the case so I built 30 of them. . . . guess I'll just have to wait a bit long
thanks

The random element is strong here. I've had a game where I had eight Biology specialists but not a single Power&Propulsion specialist - but I've also had a game where I've had good candidates for each fields mere 5 years into the game. Academies increase the number of scientists that offer their services to you but there is nothing but RNG when it comes to their specialties.
