Instead of or in addition to building a space station, you could also build a space defense platform/ orbital weapon platform (OWP). The platform would have 4 tiers.(Maybe less/ maybe more) One platform per person( or maybe faction?) per planet or certain space bodies.
Tier 1
Rods of God - "Tungsten rods that are fire/de-orbited to cause an explosion about 4-5 times that of the condensed explosives from ICBM. Can't be shot down by Anti-Ballistic missile from ICBM or anti-aircraft. Possibly protected from by an MFFS. Rods must be restocked via an unmanned cargo rocket, similar to galacticraft cargo rockets, perhaps the same rocket. No modules allowed.
Tier 2
Rocket(s)/Missile(s) - The effects of the rockets/missiles depend on the type fired. Can be shot down by Anti-aircraft or anti-ballistic missiles and/or protected against by MFFS. Must be restocked via cargo rocket. Allows up to 2 modules.
Tier 3
Low tier/ power Laser - Low level block damage and requires time to charge, however this means the laser persists for about 15-25 seconds. This tier can support small solar panels to charge and store energy for the laser. Low energy cost increase for the MFFS targeted. Energy can be beamed up by a type of satellite dish/array (Tiers on this as well.) Allows up to 4 modules( maybe less?)
Tier 4
High tier/ power laser - High level block damage and can require less time to charge with a longer firing period, 25-45 seconds. This tier can support larger solar arrays. Can break through all blocks except bedrock. Can accept energy beamed up. Massive energy cost to the targeted MFFS. Allows up to 8 modules( maybe less?)
GUIs needed for the launch platform/cargo rocket (if the galacticraft cargo rocket GUI isn't being used) GUI for the OWP as well as the personal controller and the control station/desk. Modules that affect the storage capacity, energy capacity, laser focus( could increase laser precision and damage), and maybe others. Different tiers of energy transmitters, each tier increases energy transmission rate and reduces the loss of energy experienced. Possibly a version of the control station or desk that can be programed with computercraft. Active satellite scan of an area that can be modified using modules. If possible have the reactor from mekanism as an addition to be added to a tier 3 or tier 4 OWP to supply power to the platform; however, it would need regular shipments of D-T fuel. Expand the possibilities of where space stations can be created and have factors in the environment such as temperature, radiation levels, atmosphere or lack thereof change depending on the location. One near the sun for more radiation, ability to make one on almost all planets/space bodies. Cloud stations in Jupiter and Saturn that require stronger materials and pressure protection the deeper the station. This allows a two new planets to be explored, new mobs and new locations to extract different gases from the atmosphere. Flying mobs in Jupiter and Saturn. Storms and dangerous launch and entrance conditions from Jupiter and possibly Saturn. For each level deeper into these two planets, the gravity control device must be a higher tier. Metallic hydrogen in the from Jupiter's core could allow for more advanced electronics and possibility to expand the mod to even farther star systems than promixa.

Thank you for reading.
I still have more to add/figure out.
