I've been playing Interceptor on and off since its been released and two
questions spring to mind:

1: what does the tractor beam do? - I've used it for towing disabled aliens
around/into hyperspace to take back to base BUT simply leaving the alien
floating in space results in it being recovered anyway so why bother.

2: How long does the "story" ( the bits of intercepted signals) go on for -
I've wiped out every alien installation and after a week a new base appears
and the game continues. How do I "win"?!!

Any help much appreciated
