the problem I've found with parking a BC on a planet is the massive amount of
damage that u get from landing... but if u want to try it go ahead...
alternately, if u had all your AIs set to max, put all your mining drones on
Actis IV ( 45% mineral rate), plant a probe in that sector, launch all your
fighters in support and leave 3 shuttles on the surface, jump in a shuttle and
trade either between Earth ( GalCom - class AD item or Genesis - class HT 
items ) and Lyrius ( Wraith ) or Polaris 2.. 

it'll take about 30-45 mins for all your drones to fill up, but u should clear
around 5-6 mil Galcreds from all four drones... meanwhile, a trade route from
Earth to Wraith ( two jumps ) should make you around 10-15 mil in that time...
