Megastructures
Orbital Platform
A huge space station with plenty of conveniences. Can be placed around a planet of the user's choosing. Difficult to move afterwards. The MEGA-Mini Asteroid in its center is an infinitely renewable source of
Soil. You can regenerate the Asteroid whenever you like at no cost and choose which available shape you want it in. Limited to one per save.
Biodome
The Biodome is designed to be a convenient way of automating production of
Organic nuggets, plant products, and Seeds. Can be expanded with various "Mega-Modules". One of which looks like a vehicle bay. Has 5 mini-plots of land inside. Only one per planet.
Museum
Filling the Museum’s Donation Stations unlocks "useful rewards and new perks". Donation Stations accept bytes, power, resources, and seeds. The more you donate, the taller the holographic display grows. Display Cases can be used to exhibit and categorize collections of oddities and items. Limited to one per save.

Builds your Megastructures. "Use your first Construction Anchor to mark down a construction site, then upon activation the Anchor will deploy into a Mega-Printer Platform, making use of a Mega-Printer Drone to build the DLS.
