Sunbeam

The Sunbeam was a passing bulldog class cargo ship captained by Avery Quinn that picked up the distress signal sent by the Aurora. It's significantly smaller than the Aurora, seating only six people.

The player will start receiving transmission from Avery on board the Sunbeam via the Communications Relay some time after the player has started exploring the planet. The ship alerts the player to its imminent arrival, until it gives a forty-minute warning of its eventual landing on the Mountain Island.

The Sunbeam's Failed Rescue
The Sunbeam had planned to land on the Mountain Island to rescue the player. However, before it was able to land, the Quarantine Enforcement Platform fires a beam at it. As the Sunbeam is considerably smaller than the Aurora, it is completely obliterated and all of its crew members killed, with debris raining down afterwards. There is no way of saving the Sunbeam
