we are working on an environment redo in the background at the moment, which will include a lot of new features to make space a bit more vivid. derelicts and mercenaries as well as neutral forces are strong candidates, of course

This is very very good. The primordial thing is to make a Milky Way background as seen from Earth.
The devs can use the Milky Way mosaic like this one:

And some nebulas like these:
