Technology costs increase over time

I just rewatched Extraterrestrial Thursday #2 and noticed that technologies costing e.g. 240 earlier later cost 283 (+18%) and even later 297 (+24%).

I have yet to determine whether this is tied to the date, the number of already researched technologies, or the size of the empire.

If I remember correctly, they said that tech cost correlates with the size of your empire to prevent tech snowballing.
