Maybe consider focusing on the investigation board, and filling in anything you've not yet uncovered.
You 'can't be bothered' with something important. Maybe you should be bothered.
Maybe try to confirm some of your suspicions about various things. You might learn something new.

The investigation board is key. Check not only the big question marks, but also review the other cards; it will literally tell you if there's stuff you still haven't discovered in a location. Keep poking at every part of it until it gives up all its secrets.

Also, it sounds like OP hasn't been to the sun station yet. There actually two different ways of getting there, and only one of them involves landing on it.

I believe the high energy lab has some important clues about what the other way is..

i already knew about the other way, but it feels like I looked all over

spoiler

the sunless city

and i still couldn't find it. hence why i feel like an idiot playing this game bcs i follow clues it gives me and I feel like what i'm looking for is probably right up in my face but I just don't see it. ig i'll go look there again.

If you're looking there, you're in the wrong place.
