Anyone tried to build a base on the satellite?

Might be kind of neat to have a working base of operation on the satellite, and then working bases at each monolith that you teleport between as needed.

i have not unpacked a habitat up there yet, i doubt it would let you. if you can though, i bet someone has done it

I also thought about making one up there, but then i thought about where to place the Habitat and i realised that the center of the satellite is to beautiful to place something on it.
Maybe some Zebraballs at the edges.
But i didn't tried to place something yet - i'm in the middle of moving my main base to a gateway :).

Though a base there might be nice aesthetically, functionally it's pointless and even a waste, as
a) there are no resources at all up there, and
b) you don't even lose oxygen while you're there

I was thinking maybe it would save you from having to shuttle from planet to planet. You could instantly go to any other planet and get whatever resource you need.

And your satellite base would be a great central place to process materials.

But then I realized you can't teleport vehicles, so that means moving stuff 1 backpack at a time, and it takes a lot of teleports to get to a planet and back again. You teleport to the core, then teleport to the surface, then back to the core, then back to the sattellite. Kind of a hassle.

eewwww

On the other hand, I have a metric ton of material sitting around doing nothing, I'm gonna just go try and see what happens.

Yup, have a mass storage system up there, not bothered with a shelter, but it has all base items and 4 spare large shuttles for top ups and because I can :)

Saves me a couple of bounces each time I need something off world.
