Yeah and you should get something from them too. Kind of like wrecks, maybe have them drop a bit of sci-data per every restart.
It would be really cool to see a system set up around the use of player tech. You could be required to have a hyperspace scanner and scan them in close proximity for a certain time period to extract sci-data. Kind of like what Alley was doing today to collapse the anomalies. Admins could drop the odd one in and post a hint on how to find them. Scientists start accepting resumes for escorts!
Even permanent objects always being able to give off data would spice things up, just put them really close to a populated area to up the challenge of safe extraction. Like if an anomaly was discovered in NY close to the middle of a long tradelane, the navy might try to set up a quarantine zone with perhaps 1 npc cruiser nearby, and try to stop illegal access.Guerrilla scientists would try to sneak in, maybe try to hire someone to cause a distraction. It could be like really dangerous mining!
