And, for your reference, here is the current version of the controls document (this may be updated somewhat with future versions of the game, so be sure to always consult the document that comes with your version of the game for the most up to date info): [http://arcengames.com/forums/index.php?topic=19.0 forum link].

The main reason you would ever want to do this is when parasites come and take your ships, such as your metal/crystal harvesters.  In those cases you hopefully still control your planet, so there's no way to recapture them short of destroying your command station and rebuilding another one.  So this lets you target them so that you can clear the way for rebuilding your own ships back where the parasites stole yours.  It's a fairly uncommon case unless you play against parasites a lot, which is why the obscure key combination.

Where Are The Keyboard Controls For The Game Documented?

A: The keyboard controls are in a controls.txt file in the game installation folder. If you look on the in-game menu (hit Esc while playing the game), there is also a View Controls button. In future releases, thanks to an excellent player suggestion, there will also be a link to the controls text file in the Start Menu folder for the game.

If anything is not covered there, a good place to look would be in the manual. A link to the manual is in the tutorials menu, and the last pages have a comprehensive list of all the controls. The manual is also available in the AIWar folder in your hard drive, where the game was installed.
