Using long range scout [[JumpShip]]s such as the ''[[Magellan (JumpShip class)|Magellan]]'' and lightly armed [[DropShip]]s to investigate old Star League naval charts, the Corps traveled in every direction to reestablish contact with lost and forgotten worlds and locate old SLDF era caches. Most of the contacts on inhabited worlds was diplomatic and cool, while some were outright hostile, with response to ComStar's mystical ways and technology as mixed as the Inner Sphere without the threat of an [[Interdiction]] to cow people into line. If locating a former abandoned SLDF cache or base of value, the Corps either stripped its resources for return to the Inner Sphere, or restored it to operation. (One such base was the [[Columbus]] facility, which the Corps discovered in [[3023]].<ref>''Interstellar Expeditions: Interstellar Players 3'', p. 24</ref>) While some of the lesser or stripped finds were reported to the Inner Sphere governments, the Explorer Corps retained many for the use of ComStar operations in the Periphery, some of which were used in the [[Jolly Roger Affair]].

Prophetically, Primus Sims' fears of destruction from beyond came true not in spite of but because of the Explorer Corps, when in [[3048]] the Explorer Corps vessel ''[[Outbound Light]]'' found the [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]] world of [[Huntress]], their arrival giving ammunition to [[Crusader Clans]] to launch [[Operation REVIVAL]], the [[Clan Invasion]] of the Inner Sphere.
