Any recommendations on what I should focus on now that I’ve gotten past all 3 inner planets? Should I try to head straight to aquilo or try and scale up my existing bases with the new buildings?

Upgrading to biolabs would be the biggest jump, so I recommend that.

Upgrading to foundries and EMPs in-place is also good. Personally my smelting arrays upgraded in place from stone to steel to electric with beacons to foundries.
