Also found a lot of whispering eggs and opened at least 100 damaged machinery, which got me a ton of nanites and numerous A and S class upgrade modules for my exosuit, ship and multi-tool.

It was extremely time consuming, I spent literally the entire past week in real life, up through Thursday, on that single planet. But it gave me a hell of a jump start for leaving and jumping to new systems now.
I hope you are renaming all those places you visit, that is a lot of Nanites, just from that one planet.

Also, something I recall being an issue for myself and many others. When you do discover all the creatures on a planet, it will not kick in (including the nanites for finding them all) until you click on the little paw that lights up. It is a silly decision by NMS but I thought I would warn you ahead of time.
