While that would be a cool place for a dock on a station, that's actually just a piece of the structure. You want to back up and turn towards one of the green "S" markers on your radar. The actual docking bays have flashing blue arrows pointing towards them and are lit up from the inside.

(Stations that close down from time to time would be pretty sweet though)

I couldn't find any Blue arrows around the whole space station
When I hover above the spacestation and maybe exactly on the S mark it docks sometimes it doesnt
Happens on day K -10 For me Don't know if it just me or something else

What an interesting issue. Does this only happen in Dau K10, or does it happen at other stations?

I have only gone in 3 stations yet and in Dau L11 sometimes it does too btw I also have green fog (the whole K10 is green)in K10 for some dunno what it is

I suspect you probably just need to focus on locating the "S" icons on your radar, and approaching those from different directions, until you become more familiar with docking bays.

You're welcome to post an image of a docking bay, in case there's some kind of rendering issue, or driver bug with your device. The flashing arrows are not that large, and are on either side of the entrance.

The fog can certainly be disorienting. You could try sticking to un-fogged stations, for the moment.

@Incarnate: As far as I can tell, his screenshot is pointing at the hub the exit bays are arrayed around, except there are no exit bays rendered in his image (compare to my screenshot below, where they're present). So at least that much seems to be broken. Maybe the docking bays are also invisible.

@BlakenSSJ: For reference, what you're looking for is the structure I circled in red. That's a docking bay. I also circled an exit bay in yellow -- you cannot enter through an exit bay, so don't let those trick you.

I went around the space station in dau K 10 Couldn't Find anything like in the image above maybe they were invisible cuz i entered the dock without going into anything like those in image just flying around the base and I entered one unknowingly gonna log in and see if it fixed it self
Edit: It did fixed itself
