Topic: Can someone explain research?

I cant seem to find information on how research works.  I found some cores, researched them, now I can make 100% of harverters but when I look at the price, it is 100k for me to make them.  Harverters buy and sell for about 10k, why would I ever want to research?  I'm obviously missing something.
