I think the most appropriate solution would be a "moon base"
and a "space station" as two different environments, but
most likely with lots of traffic between the two.

That works. How would we provide continuity between the two? Story-wise
I mean. Would we have a page dedicated to each environment?

I don't know. I suppose that will be up to the base
commander and the president of the station council.

I would definitely use two different pages for the ground
and space environments, but with lots of possibilities to be
beamed up/down.

I don't really think typical space vehicles belong on a
space station (it's more golf car like vehicles you expect
there).

True. It makes sense when you say it that way.

Do you mean a cart like here:

Yup.

Play well,

Jacob

Or, if you prefer (and I certainly would) you could have the
characters and goods or cargo or whatever transported by an
interplanetary vehicle - yet more options!  Star Trek only
had beaming because they couldn't build the transport ships...
now if we can't build transport ships... 8-)

Just a thought
