And speaking of antags, just like you have the option to opt out of being selects as an antag, there should be an option on the job preference screen to allow you to opt out of getting picked for something like this.
But this sounds like a great idea. Maybe the lost group is a team from another station that just evacuated, and our station has to retrieve them once they make it back to their extraction point. It can't be too easy, so they should know the coordinates, but not have a beacon or anything that can be homed in on. But in case telescience goes unmanned or the scientists are incompetent, the lost group should also have some ability to return on their own. That method should just be much more difficult.
And of course they should start with some kind of booty to return with.
