Salvage
Is the art of extracting valuable materials from wrecks in space. These Salvaged materials can be sold on the market for profit or used in Rig Production
The Salvaging Skill and Salvager Module is required.
Destroyer type ships are particularly well suited for salvaging operations due to the fact that they have 8 high slots. With four salvagers and four small tractor beams you can clear up a mission of loot and salvaged wrecks very quickly.
Salvaging with a ship for that purose may also may get you invited to level four missions by veteran players to split the salvage while they destroy high bounty rats. This can be a boon to a new players wallet.
Salvaging is also a profession needed to complete certain Archaeological Sites in Exploration
