Scanning Cargohold to determine identity of metal and trace materials...
Identified!
100m3 scrap crystallized steel, [determined to be a harder, stronger, heavier alloy of steel, unknown how to replicate]
50m3 rock with trace thorium!
Maneuver! You grab the husk of the sensor cluster with your arm, and proceed to push it towards the asteroid you found the cavern in, for storage purposes for later. You note that the husk is still structurally sound and in one piece. It could possibly be modified for further use...
[Two Additional Turns pass]
Maneuver! You shove the husk of what was the sensor cluster into the cavern on the large asteroid.
WARNING! Six unknowns
within 300km. Passive reading determines to be metallic in nature, and emanates a large quantity of heat. Appears to be heading straight for us. Attempt to communicate?

Woah, if we have "Borg-ish" tech we can just modify ourselves into anything we want as long as we have the materials...
Or, can we just assimilate?
Just assimilate, You aren't quite sure how it works either. Yet.
