That was the same conclusion I drew (about the pods "powering" the guns or disposing of whatever), I was just mildly puzzled that they don't notice the pods leaving and then wondering if the pods came back after making a delivery or if they were replaced by other pods, but I don't know how much attention they pay to space just because they are capable of going to space so who knows? XD

"Oh, that's part of the maintenance cycle. A pod will pop off to the station for a technician over the least little thing. Beta test. You understand."
I guess they're not going to care as long as it gets replaced so their "disintegrators" continue functioning XD
