Space is very empty and boring. I'm very sad, I almost feel like I wasted my money and should have stayed with EVE. 
Are there plans to add "stuff" to space? Or is the focus back on the ground?

What's funny is that TH said there would be separate teams working on the ground and expansion.
Sadly, I havent even seen one bit of information regarding any new things for the expansion so my assumption is they BSed us.
But yes, after Mastering and doing all the other missions for the planet stations there's nothing else to do.
I've PvPed and that got old real quick when it was either I killing them in one hit or they killing me in one hit.
I have a Firespray which is fun to fly around and stuff. But that's all there is to it.
I've even spent 3 months looting black sun ships for the ace helmet and havent gotten one yet.
So I call out on the Devs to tell us what we can expect soon.

I feel that JTL in general turned out great but lacks good content but i feel once this GCW and CU Is done i know that the devs are gonna add stuff. What everyone should be doin is overflowing this board with ideas so the devs at least see something.

No, there hasn't been mention of space additions recently. Hmm... Secret team... Supposed upgrades no longer talked about... could it be?

Well, in that case I'll go destroy some asteroids and you can give me your XP.
It's a game. Was space empty during ANH? Nope. How about Sienar and Tarkin's assult on Zonama Sekot? Nope, Air mines and droid starfighters everywhere. (If you didn't get that, it was a bit of EU) My point? This is STAR WARS. As in Wars among the Stars? Plus, it's a game. What's the point of space travel if there's no one to blow up?

Too many conflicting arguments about space. First everyone says Space needs to be bigger, then everyone else says there is no one in space. If space was made larger then wouldnt the feeling of emptiness just get worse? 
Most of the problem with ppl not being in space for 2 Reasons.
1.All of them are at Lord Nyaxs Cave camping the area all day and all night. The ppl you always see on the trade Forums with these outrageous AA's and CA's with +25 to whatever. Those are the ppl that are camping that run macros. If they took away the ability to loop certain cmds ppl would either have to be there to run the macro or just head up to space and try to get some good loot such as the BlackSun helmet.
2.Space PVP needs some work. For example you just hypered into Deep Space and you start to look around. Youve been up there for about 3 mins or so. All of a sudden an IMP ship flys in front of you. Five seconds later your back at the Coronet Space Port getting Repaired cause it turns out that the IMP ship used Bstrike2 on you and killed you. They need to fix the damage that ships can do in PVP. If a single IMP ship can take out a MP Nova Carrier in 2 shots then something is majorly wrong. Its not based off of who has the best strategy its based off of who gets the first shot off much like the ground game. Who ever hits first is usually the winner.
So heres 10 cents. My 2 cents is free

Well space is not so boring if you try to find something to do in it. For example try finding rare fighters and destroy them, or go across the POIs and hunt the pirates on the way, or team up with Friends on MP ship and fly around the LOK killing nyms, get yourself a full crew and it will be most fun you even had in the game. You can even stay away from piloting and let somebody else do it while you sit in operations chair and manipulate the ship programs.

EVE was fun but man, nothing to do but mine and pvp.

The bomber strike line of commands do not work on player targets. The Imp killed you because he was a better pilot.
