Who cares? Just pick the first planet that lets you build. You'll be moving and building more outposts soon enough.
Pro tip: Look for a planet with a mix of resources and mild weather conditions. Trust me, your future self will thank you!
Honestly, as long as there's a decent amount of resources, just pick a planet that looks cool. Who doesn鈥檛 want a scenic view while mining?
I've found setting up on Vectera in the Narion system works great. Tons of resources and it's relatively safe.
