"Well, I would not have died. I would have just floated through the galaxy, circuits slowly freezing, a rescue beacon blinking until systems shut down."
―J-6[1]

Rescue beacons were a type of signal beacon used in emergency situations. Droids such as J-6 could be outfitted with the beacons, and if the droid was to become stranded in deep space, the beacon would continue transmitting until the droid's systems shut down.[1]
