Collect data on the expanding [[void]]. You will be provided with [[Hyperspace Sensor]]s that need to be install on the hull of the ship. During FTL jumps, these sensors collect data. You will receive $1000 per data at each magnitude of collection: 10, 100, 1000, etc.

Ship docking is currently limited to [[Contract#Rescue|Rescue contracts]] and cannot be done with arbitrary ships or other ships in the player's [[Fleet]].

To dock with a ship, the player must be in [[Tactical]] view and must line up their [[Docking Port|docking port]] with the docking port of the stranded ship. A ship's docking port appears as a large rectangle connected to a small square with a line. The player's docking port will be yellow with the large rectangle where the port is, while the stranded ship's docking port will be red and flashing with the small square where the docking port is.
