Everyone's an art critique

Well that was fun. Determined to pay my way on Daedalus station, I picked up a rare art collection mission.
It was within my rank rank (mostly useless), within my ship's capability and quite close.
Off I pop, find the USS for the mission, drop in, target the rare art canister and way hey, up pop 4 ships in a wing and 5 seconds later I'm floating in the black with my RemLok suit keeping my alive amongst the debris of my ship!
After my recovery, and a painful half a million credits later, I'm back in a new Cobra Mk3, the 'Hotblack Sundive II'.
So I set off for that art, better prepared and more wary this time.
I drop into the mission and instantly shields to full and guns out.
I wait, not going for the canister.
Nothing.
So tentatively I deploy the cargo scoop.
Nothing.
I line up.
Nothing.
I fly forwards.
Nothing.
I scoop the art, and before I can retract my cargo scoop I get a missile warning and then Bang, i'm another half a mil down purchasing the 'Hotblack Sundive III'.
A Cobra Mk3 who is not picking up artwork!
