The distress beacon didn't have a timestamp, neither in the message nor the metadata, so I was already suspicious. The ship graveyard that welcomed me as I dezoned into the system only confirmed my suspicions.
I should have left then, but I felt obligated to remove the threat, so I went to battlemode and approached the coordinates, expecting pirates or maybe one of those giant space viruses. Instead, I found a ship matching the distress call, seeming to be suffering the described engine troubles.
Docking was simple enough, and I was prepared to help.
Not for small giant space viruses.
