They don't by default in the same sector but they can be if you mod the SystemTypes.txt file.

Thanks, Captain Kwok, for answering a lot of questions.

Another question...

In the Empire Options screen there is a setting for Warp Transit Type Order. The objects in the list that appears include: Monster, Planet with Colony, Constructed World, Building, Satellite, Mine.

Can you really have planets, buildings, ring worlds worlds and monsters going through warp points?

When you move the cursor to the blue title bar that's at the top left of each screen (e.g. "Designs", "Research", "Empire Options", etc), yellow four-directional arrows appear on the cursor, suggesting that you can move something around. Do you know what this does and how to use this feature?

You can move the windows around by clicking and dragging. This is only possible at higher resolutions where there is screen real estate to move the windows, though. Sadly, you can not access anything else, so all it really lets you do is see another small part of the system map.

Thanks, Fyron. The only resolution available on my screen is 1024 x 768, so I couldn't move it.

How do you go about mining asteroid fields and do they last forever?

There are remote mining components that you add to a ship/base/satellite that when placed in a sector with asteroids or uncolonized planet to collect resources. By default they decrease the resource value of the planet or asteroid field.
