Building a new KSP 1 Mod list for a new playthrough, could use some advice.

[RayneCloud]

So, as the title says, I'm building a new mod load out for a new KSP 1 playthrough (I've not actively played KSP 1 in years) as I want to experience some new challenges and really see if I can push myself to achieve things I've yet to do in KSP 1.

The Current Mod List Core includes the following,
* The entire Near / Far Future Mod Suite, with the rest of Nertea's mods such as System Heat, Space Dust, MK4 Space Plane, etc
* TAC-LS as my Life Support Mod of choice
* OPM as a default to add new worlds to explore
* Stockalike Mining Expansion with SimpleConstruction + the NotSoSimpleConstruction addon and Keridian Dynamics for building ships and bases/colonies
* Feline Utility Rovers to help with rover design
* Kerbal Planetary Base System as my surface installation of choice
* A bunch of QoL, Graphics, and Foundational Stuff, full list below,

What I'm looking for is some suggestion, or advice, on pushing past the Kerbol system.. or if anyone looks at this list and thinks they have some mods that might help make the playthrough better. I've been inspired by GU, Infinite Discoveries, Kcalbeloh, and a few other planet packs but I've never gone interstellar before and I'm not really sure what would be a good first introduction. (Some have suggest Kcalbeloh is a good first step with the wormhole). So, any thoughts all? This a pretty solid list to start with?
