“The science has only just started.”

–Wilson, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“Uuuugh, why can't that old guy just build this thing himself?”

–Willow, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“Is nice floor for light ball.”

–Wolfgang, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“There's so much left to be done...”

–Wendy, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“LET HIM CONSTRUCT IT HIMSELF”

–WX-78, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“I'm afraid I can't yet ascertain its function.”

–Wickerbottom, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“Might as well help the old guy out, eh?”

–Woodie, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“I don't see why I must be the one to do all the work.”

–Maxwell, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“I knöw nöt its purpöse. A tribute tö Mani, perhaps?”

–Wigfrid, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“There's so much building to do, can't we go play instead?”

–Webber, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“Some kind of platter for the ground?”

–Warly, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“Lots to do”

–Wormwood, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“Feels kinda like old times back at the factory.”

“Is throne? Not as good as Mermfolk throne.”

–Wurt, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“We've still got a ways to go.”

–Walter, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“I've got the uneasy feeling I've done this before...”

–Wanda, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its first stage

“I guess I could just burn it and be done with it, but now I'm kinda curious...”

–Willow, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its second stage

“Wolfgang just follow instructions.”

–Wolfgang, examining the Incomplete Experiment in its second stage

The Lunar Siphonator, also known as the completed form of the Incomplete Experiment, is a craftable structure exclusive to Don't Starve Together, introduced in Return of Them.

The Incomplete Experiment blueprint will be given to players by Wagstaff upon entering a Moonstorm for the first time, along with the blueprint for the Astroggles.

The Incomplete Experiment serves as the first stage of the Lunar Siphonator and can only be built over the Mysterious Energy spawned by assembling the Celestial Altar, Celestial Sanctum and Celestial Tribute nearby to one another.

Similar to the Hermit Home, it is crafted in stages by adding materials for each upgrade:

• Stage 1 (aka crafting the Lunar Siphonator) requires 4 Scrap, 5 Moongleams and 2 Electrical Doodad.
• Stage 2 requires 4 Scrap, 10 Moongleams and 10 Infused Moon Shards.
• Stage 3 requires one Restrained Static, the Celestial Orb and 20 Infused Moon Shards. This completes the Lunar Siphonator.

Therefore, the total cost of building the Lunar Siphonator is:

• 1 Restrained Static: Reward for helping Wagstaff complete his experiment.
• 8 Scrap: Hammering Abandoned Junk, rummaging Junk Piles, deconstructing Horizon Expandinator.
• 15 Moongleams: Caught with Bug Nets during the Moonstorm Event
• 30 Infused Shards: Mined during the Moonstorm event
• 2 Electrical Doodads
• the Celestial Orb: Obtained by mining the Suspicious Boulder.

0.4655-1.064 seconds after the completion of Stage 3, 6 meteors will crash down within 10-19m around the structure, which will destroy it and spawn the Celestial Champion. All structures within 15m will be destroyed, and all workable within 15m will be worked. For instance, any rocks will be mined and any trees will be chopped.

Trivia

• The Lunar Siphonator and the Incomplete Experiment were introduced in the Eye of the Storm update.
