What To Do With a Dead Star?

You create a space yard ship, usually a baseship, and put a construction yard on it. Then use it to build remote bases.

Cruiser Hulls work remarkably well, too.

Bridge, LS, Quarters, one Solar Panel, a Spaceyard, fill the remaining space with engines (3 or 5, I forget how many LS/CQ a Cruser needs). You have the minimum needed to (slowly) move that Spaceyard about; the supply storage can be refilled during the (oft-lengthy) construction projects.

Much cheaper, especially in terms of research, than waiting for BAseships. Spaceyard ocmponents ARE only 400kT, after all.
