Tip: farming freighter modules in expeditions (lemmy.ca)

Because your faction standing in expeditions doesn't carry over to your main save, kill a bunch of frigates and freighters while in the expedition. Then transfer the tech modules back to your main save. Yoho

Assuming you're still in your expedition save.

When you finish your expedition and have claimed all the rewards in the expedition, it will pop up a dialog box asking if you wish to return to your main save. Do not click Accept. Hit ESC or O or whatever the equivalent button is on your system to dismiss this dialog box. Head to the anomaly and find the Expedition Terminal. Transfer items into the terminal and then choose End Expedition from the terminal.

This is the standard way anyway. There's a bit of a hack to transfer more items if you have more than what fits in the terminal. But use the standard way the first time :)

Ah, cool, thank you! I didn't realize the Expedition Terminal worked in both directions. I just completed phase 2 in the current expedition and wondering how the items get back to my main save.
