Another option is to research Solar Collectors, which will supply your ships with, at the highest tech level, 150 points of supply for each solar collector component per star in the system each turn. For example, say you have two level 2 solar collectors on your colony ship, and are in a system with 2 stars. You would get (100*2)*2=400 supplies. 100 for the component, multiplied by 2 for the number of components and 2 for the number of stars. This number of bonus supplies would last a colony ship for 8 moves, and you're unlikely to get ships with no supplies.
