You had to blast your way through the rings to get there, slow down when you approached the ship (get within 10-30 km then stop, press ESC to launch your shuttle), pick up the survivors, and get back to base(same routine as pickup here).  I seem to remember that there was a time limit (Mad Angel power supply will blow up if not done in time).

Cool - more docs!  Thanks for the extra info; I knew there were more keys involved (I could see them in the code), but not knowing the overall goal made it challenging to piece together.

Looks like it landed in /games/action on Asimov now, so should be available to try.
