==Description==
 
The ship is some two hundred to three hundred feet in length, and shaped like a sort of fish or bird-like creature, with the bridge in the head. It has a dorsal fin-like apparatus on top, which appears to be used for stabilization when inside a [[planet]]'s atmosphere. It has thrusters in the rear, and rows of yellowish lights (which may be sensors of some kind) running along the head.
 
==Armament==
 
Though not intended for combat, the Salvage craft is armed with asteroid lasers to blast away meteors and asteroids. In the End of Time, these also prove to be capable anti-missile defenses.
