Question about quest

[Sycho]

I'm trying to figure out the game play mechanics etc from anything online I can find. There's not that much for ES2. Anyway, I've got a quest (don't know how I got it at the moment) that says "A Probe Alone", "Bring the alien ship to a hangar in one of your systems". I have no idea where this ship is. The quest doesn't seem to give any information on it.
Can someone point me in the right direction please? Also, is there a tutorial that I'm not aware of?
Thanks for any help.

It is the exploration ship called EFRON. If you had a bunch of explorers out you may not notice you got an extra one from the event.

The ship the quest is talking about should have spawned in the same system where the quest was triggered.

You can click through your idle fleets until the quest ship is selected. for me it was named 'unknown'. After it got to your home world you have to 'disband' the fleet. Something that took me some turns until I found the hint in the quest description ^^

Thanks for the info. That helps!

I'm doing this quest and I'm a bit confused about what I'm supposed to do with the ship. The only time I ever see a hangar is when I have a newly created ship. Does this mean I'm supposed to create a ship to make a hangar for this ship to travel to?

In a system you own, hit the "disband" tab (mid panel) - it doesn't actually disband it, just parks it in the shipyard.

Hint: you can do this with all ships to avoid having them attacked by pirate / AI fleets, then pop them out + merge with forces you've brought in. It's a very handy tactic to avoid losing ships, esp. early game.

Thanks, I've tried as you suggested in two different systems but it doesn't seem to be doing anything to update the quest.

You need to disband both "ENFER" and "Positron", I think (both created at the same time).
