Upon killing the alien ship, you should take its cargo, usually an orange color. Once you take the cargo you have two option two sell it or refine it. Both can be done at your base, a big blue square on the mini map.
At the base you can access quests, which are like jobs that you can do. There all types of quests for every type of level. So have fun doing them, just becareful not to get kill in the process.
