Possible to 'delete' a poorly placed construct?

I mistakenly placed a science station too far away and I am wondering if I could remove it so I could place it better. Is this possible?

Get Thee a Station Detonator. Park as close as possible, and activate.

Do station dets handle anything other than trade stations?

If so I'll add it to the Hints&Tips Guide!

Yes Dave, they do. Station dets, individually, will take out ALL player-built structures. If you find a 'bake sale' on SD's, snap up all you can buy!

I never knew that. Where do you aim (for a trade station, it's not the docking bay ... it's the blue square).

IIRC you just park as close to the station as possible when destructing a secondary station.

RC's got it. And yes, the ancillary stations DO NOT normally show a blue square like does a trade station. Your HUD/chat screen should tell you if you're not in range to deploy the StatDet. Otherwise, park real close, aim for center-of-mass, and 'Fire when ready, Gridley!'
