A few of the "dead" ships get absorbed into some of the alien hive ships. The flesh of the victims, preserved by the harsh vacuum of space, gets added to the biocollective.

Just keep in mind: Every abandoned ship has VERY good reason why it was abandoned in the first place  . |

Yes and It would be cool to have them =) Searching for Cargo like an Explore Procedure...=) Rumors on closest planets/Deep Space zones(if the ship is abandoned by a little time,Dead Captain should have written something relevant in his Log,no???),but BTW...Some NON-USEFUL logs would be nice...^_^ It could add depth to the game...ehm,OK,i'm dreaming...XD

Pretty interesting--you could stumble on an abandoned ship, and it would be treated as an opportunity to Explore. Very high danger, very high reward possibility. Nice way to tempt a Captain into things he should not try =)

NO TA Missions in ST,only Ghost ships and an explore procedure to search for cargo =)

Having an Explore option for derelict space craft could be good. You could definitely have booby traps and alien attacks on board to add the risk-factor.

That sounds awesome,could be late game stuff for explorers...the option only showing up late in the game...about the time when all the exploration zones start to yield very little.

Naturally, only high level captains with high Explore and Pilot could even notice these ships, since they most probably look like space debris after getting knocked here and there by comets, asteroids and other cosmic nonsense.
I think it's possible to code such encounters as a Harvest/Explore interface like what you do on Planets, wouldn't it, Andrew?
At least, that would finally give high-level Explorers something to validate their continued existence after they have milked every planet dry.
