A couple of spelling bugs

spatial rifts needs to have a capital S to be consistent (in the tech menu).

And if Hienlein is supposed to be named after a certain famous author, then it's Heinlein. I fixed it in my own tech and stars files....but you might consider fixing the distributions.

I'm still on 5A, so I don't know if this has been fixed in 5B or C, but in the event where your scientists invent "The Undead Warrior", there are a couple of typo/spelling errors. In the description of the event, "Theyve" should be "They've" and in the second (neutral) choice, "benifitial" should be "beneficial".

On 5C, the event where you're notified that business corruption is becoming a problem, the 2nd (neutral) choice has "business" spelled "buisiness".

I noticed that in Galcatic Exhibition and one other (I forgot which) the influence is improved "10%%".

In 5C, the first contact message from the Arcean Empire has a fuuny typo. They tell you, "...you humans have created a great boom...". I'm guessing that "boom" is supposed to be "boon" :)

No boom today. Boom tomorrow. There's always a boom tomorrow. LOL

'I fixed it in my own tech and stars files'

There's lots of odd spellings in the stars.lst. Most of them are archaic spellings that are otherwise correct (Polydukes--Polydeuces, Gwennifar -- Gwennevar -- Guenevere), but a few others are misspellings (Alderan -- Alderaan). (Examples pulled from memory, stars.lst form first, modern/correct form last.)

Duplicate entries may be worth removing too (Polydukes/Polydeuces == Pollux), as would alternate names for Sol, Earth (I know Gaia was there, and I think another was too), Mars, and Saturn to minimise translation problems, if/when that happens.
