activity help: Ship Crushing

Backstory:

Minerals are some of the most valuable items in our current economy and in worlds where starships are the main mode of transport, Veltsbar and Tritanium are some of the most wanted.
In the late 25th century, the Galactic Cenet were approached by Mister Avril Caprees, a Maraquden scientist. He suggested some kind of equipment which would enable the user to crush enemy starships.
He was denied on a moral and ethical basis.
In 2490, after the Galactic Cenet was overthrown in light of wartime ruling, the SDF recontacted Mister Caprees and offered to fund his research. By this time, Caprees had earnt himself a fair living and had, in fact, continued his research in order to better improve it.
Needless to say, he was absolutely delighted.
