If your ship also has a shield module, you create a forcefield to keep parasites from entering your ship and to completely absorb ranged attacks from the creatures that inhabit aetherspace. This effect will drop whenever the turret is fired.
While aboard any ship, you can scan a world for any constructs or signs of life (though an algontherine can only detect those Lusternians who have passed through the Portal of Fate). This is possible while docked with the world or while launched if your ship is in the same location as the dock portal.
