Might not have to . If the government checks for cell towers near the landing sight , they might still be able to determine who was there or narrow it down to people heading away from the location.

Oh, I never would have said that they won't give themselves away by accident. In fact, I quite expect that their cell phones have already betrayed them, just by being on them when they spent time in the future crash site and then decamped with Gharr in tow, and it's just a question of whether the government will do the requisite homework before they get outed some other way.

I just guessed that Mark was not doing it on purpose.

TRIVIA
The Alliance space stretches for an impressive 16 thousand light years along the longest axis and contains approximately 12 billion star systems. Despite that, 99.99% of those star systems haven't been explored even by an automatic mapping drone yet, and the borders of the Alliance space are defined mostly by the reach of spaceships from the nearest colony or space station, and in general are purely informative.
