The research team begins analysis of the derelict alien pod. It's discovered the pod is some sort of beacon or transmitter and could possibly be up to 1 million Hiigaran years old. During the study, something goes wrong and gets loose inside the lower decks. The hanger module explodes, crippling the Kuun-Lan.

Use the build menu to replace the Kuun-Lan's hanger module. |
You must rebuild the hanger module. The hanger module is listed in the build manager near the bottom.
You aren't under time constraints with the Kuun-Lan's research deck floating away in space. Take the extra time to begin harvesting resources. Select the workers and press H to start gathering. If you possess a processor, select the processor and order the ship to guard the workers. Feel free to get all the nearby resources before deciding to start construction on the hanger module.

Produce five ACVs or ten acolytes and escort the Clee-San to the damaged module. |
When ready, open the build menu with the B key and start construction on a new hanger module. Once the hanger module completes, a new objective appears.
Send a contingent of ten acolytes or five ACVs to provide support for the Clee-San. Instruct them to guard the Clee-San in sphere formation.
You're ordered to investigate the research module by using the scanning system onboard the Clee-San. You must use at least ten acolytes or five ACVs to escort the Clee-San to the research module. If you don't use at least that amount, the Clee-San won't move toward the module. But, don't use more than that amount; disaster is going to strike this search party, and you don't want to lose more craft than necessary. Because of this, don't send experienced ACVs - send off your newest and least experienced vessels!
 | 
Don't approach the research module with more than ten acolytes - you're going to lose them all! |
Select the five ACVs and order them to guard the Clee-San in sphere formation. The Clee-San will automatically move toward the research module's position indicated on the sensors manager. Should you want to stop the Clee-San at any time, simply take the five ACVs off of guard duty.
As you move through space to the research module, new territory becomes uncovered. This territory includes additional resource deposits. Move your workers, processor, remaining ACVs, and even the Kuun-Lan to this position and begin harvesting. The presence of the Kuun-Lan will also assist with the impending attack from a new enemy.
As you approach the research module, a cutscene appears depicting the Clee-San attempting its scans on the module. A particle beam fires from the research module and slams into the Clee-San and escort ACVs. This new enemy infects all ships - the Kuun-Lan reports incoming enemies on several attack vectors.
