*Yes.*

Anahita stops firing, but keeps their flamethrower aimed at the Nova.
Yvonne rapidly types a message that shows up on the exterior of Anahita's screen. "What do you want?"

Inside the Ship is a control room. You must move all the outlying fuel cells into the engine cell and set the engines for self destruct. Of course you could do it the hard way and blow up every fuel cell on its own but there's no guarantee that would get all of the Central.
