I'm testing PI on my first planet with modest results and am concerned about moving the CC:
1. What happens to the facilities when you're 'done' with a planet?
2. Can I 'take the CC with me' to another planet?
3. Will one CC work for an entire planet or do I have to move it around to get closer to resources?
Gratitude.
Once planted a Command Center must stay right where it is. It can only be deleted.
All other facilities can be deleted and new ones placed elsewhere on the planet (they do not have to be connected to the CC).

You can't move it. Period. You must buy another and place it after deleting the old.
Besides, the question was answered.

Or you could, but it would be silly. Actually since when you first open the planet mode window to view a planet (that you have a CC on) it will automatically rotate your screen and zoom in to your command center. This means if you re-locate all your structures to a different part of the planet every time you view it you will need to stop the camera very quickly, or zoom out, move your camera around, fiddle with the coloring so you can see your structures, and then manually move to / zoom in. So not having to deal with the camera moving to and zooming into the opposite side of the planet is a very good reason to want to move your command center. And if you don't think having to manually find and zoom into your factories / extractors is a burden then you obviously have never had a setup on an ice planet before.
It's just really not that big of a deal.
Maybe, don't use Ice Planets then ?
Edit: Also, just buy another Command Center. Or can one not spare 150,000 ISK ?
I'm just hearing whining.

He said there was no reason and I gave him one. 150,000isk? Try 150,000 Plus the 6m isk lost from upgrades, plus losing everything on plant, most likely another 5m-10m isk and any PI materials, because when you remove a command center, everything on the planet is destroyed. I'm just hearing someone who doesn't know what they are apparently talking about.
Your last sentence is idiotic. Really not smart.
And I'm still just hearing whining, now about the cost of upgrades.
Free games with no monetary system are that way

Upgrading Command Centers is a much needed ISK sink.

Just ignore Krixtal Icefluxor. Quite often he has no clue about details and how to organise things the best way. I've discussed in the past quite often with him on Mining topics. It was just not worth the time. Believe me. Just correct him 1 time to keep newbies informed the right way and then ignore him. ;)
Excuse me, but I posted absolutely no incorrect information at all. AT ALL.
