Reserve fleets are ships that you have built that you stash in a hard-to-find location, where nobody can do anything to it.  The crew, however, enjoys being with the family, and so heads home.  That's why all of the fees when you bring it back.  Or at least, that's my hypothesis.

No, it can't take damage.  It also doesn't do any damage.

so do the marines come back when you recall your ship? and hard to find meaning that people cant do damage to it when they attack?

The fees are to cover maintainence i think? And you do keep all your marines when you activate a ship.

basicly the ships are mothballed is a secure location in your mothership.  the cost to unreserve them is what it cost to bring them back from mothballs and to recall the crews and Marines

Yea...sorry I may have said it confusingly.

The only things that can happen with the ship when it's reserved are upgrading, buying more of the ship (which will increase the re-activation cost accordingly), resupplying marines (marines have no effect on the activation cost, by the way), and selling the ship.

Things that can't happen in reserve: ship attacks someone, ship is involved in defending attacks, ship gaining experience (happens in attacks anyway), marines are lost from ship, activation cost lowering (though it can increase due to resupplying the ships to a higher amount).
