Since this is a space craft, and the nearest source of light is probably 
a sun, light fading probably wouldn't make a noticeable difference. The 
falloff curve would be so flat at this distance that there would be very 
little difference in the intensity of light at each end of the ship.

However, lights on the ship itself could certainly benefit from this...
