don't do this. by the love of god don't be a completionist in ths game, it sucks the life out of it so much you forget that there was ever anything to appreciate in this husk of software.
this was so not worth it, there's like... 4 out of the 24 powers worth using, the turn invisible one, the whirlwind sprint one to get around faster, the one that lets you harvest stuff (sorta, you can just buy resources from shops) and the personal atmosphere one which is infinite stamina for a time and helps when you're over encumbered.
for a quick breakdown, every power corresponds to a temple, there's 24 of them, so you need to do the stupid zero g flying into sparkles minigame a minimum of 24 times in one cycle, and know to not NG+ in your first one otherwise you're adding cycles on later, and if the game doesn't glitch out and all temples spawn. anyways since there's 10 levels to each power you're doing the minigame a bare minimum of 240 times, not to mention the loading screens of warping to a place, sprinting your ass over to the temple, and the unskippable 2 minute cutscenes you have to watch for all artifacts and powers. this is not fun and a grind even when you skip the buggy main quest, so yeah please don't. save yourself. starfield's fine but not if you do this shit that was completely intended by the devs as you like.. becoming detached from reality and becoming the bad guy hunter who kills one of your buddies, but in reality it just makes me feel like they could've designed this to be so much better. just having vladimir give you all the locations at once in a NG+ cycle would save so much time of having to run back to the lodge or the eye in a universe where he's dead. but they don't do that so people who embark on this grind are in for suffering. at least it's fine as a podcast background activity. still not worth it though.
