Default 1st Game Issues: Resupply

I wanted to start this new Thread for a better subject opener.

I'm finding out the hard way that resupply is a major factor in the game. This only adds to the realism of supplying huge forces in distant places and while tedious, is very good IMO. "An Army Marches on it's Stomach" (Napoleon) after all eh?

My question is this: Do Resupply Facilities function without a Spaceport in the system? I'm asking this in the hopes that it gets answered before I actually try it (which will be in a few turns of my current game) -- barring that I'll find out the hard way.

After sending Scouts to my Home System for resupply, I noticed that it's woefully inadequate to manage a serious offensive fleet. Is this how it's meant to be?
