They were on Vexical-2, one of three habitable planets in the Vexical system. Salem had taken an overly redundant and roundabout route to make sure they were not being followed. They even landed on Vexical-5 where they switched out their Puddle-Jumper for a more advanced ship. It was unfortunate that she had to leave behind her new ship, it was amazing to fly but now all she had to fly was that junker ship.
The junker ship was used to go around the local system and pick up debris. Sometimes it would be used to pick up smaller rocks or go mining in an asteroid field. Then there was what they used it for, illegal travel between two destinations within the solar system.
