Description The Deep Space Rescue and Retrieval Agency's flagship, nicknamed the Cork (after its revolutionary engine), can arrive on the scene of any intergalactic crisis and provide crucial support to not only save lives, but vital resources as well. The cork operates 4 manipulator arms equipped with various tools to aid in rescue and recovery operations. Such tools include, magnetic grapples to secure space craft and debris, hull sealant appliers to secure any breach or leak in a distressed craft, and gravity manipulators to wheel and secure in larger objects. The cork also can deploy two independent craft from its hull. These craft can also assist in recovery operations, but can also be vital in restoring essential operations to distressed ships, or simply evacuating endangered crewmen. In the center of the cork is a space which can be used to transport a large storage container to secure recovered resources, these containers can aslo be "stacked" if there be need for more storage space. Additionally, in place of the storage crate, the cork can equip a "rescue shelter" for personal of damaged ship, or it can simply secure smaller vessels internally, while still retaining its ability to tow considerably larger ones externally. Finally, to ensure timely arrival to any emergency, the cork equips the state of the art "corkscrew drive", which essentially spirals the craft through time space at velocities far beyond the speed of light.

I thought I implied that the cargo container could be switched out for other variations
