Say you find a new area, but it doesn't have enough power to run everything.
Call your buddy the engineer, tell him that you've activated a remote doodad, and let them shoot a space laser in your general direction. (as seen by a new option on their laser computer or whatever they got.
Remote space place delta is now powered up and ripe for whatever gimmick or research you have planned.
Unfortunately since the crew only has one laser, any remote fun times will have to happen one at a time, or hope that last laser shot can keep everything online for more then 5 minutes.
