I've got one, but I don't even remember the name of the game.

It was a spaceship simulator, where you were flying over a Jovian(?)
moon looking for alien artifacts.  When you found one, you'd hover over
it and beam it up for analysis.  This told you more about the alien
race, and also filled in a square in a mural page.

This was CGA graphics on an IBM XT.  I just tried asking ChatGPT
about it, and drew a blank.  I don't even remember the publisher.

Anybody remember this one?
