Please forgive my ignorance, I am new to this game and still trying to figure everything out.

I am wondering what Star Shells are used for. I know they appear to be some kind of flare, but do they also damage ships? In what case would I want to use them?

I thought maybe they are used to illuminate targets at night for the Deck Gun but can they be used offensively as well?

Any help welcome, thanks!

PS I tried running a search but couldn't really find any useful info on this, sorry if the answer is to be found here somewhere.
