Why do the space based improvements (orbital power station, nexus minning,...) keep coming up as choices for build even after I built the improvement at that city?

This is a *good* thing. You can build as many of each as you like. The effect on your empire is cumulative.

So there is no "max" limit to the number of space based platforms that each city can have???

Orbital faciities are not base specific after construction, they are faction "wide" providing their benefits to every base in the empire, which effect for nutrients, energy and minerals is determined by 1)base population and 2)the presence in the base of an Aerospace Complex.
If you lose the base where you built the orbital facility, you keep the orbital.
So, the number of these that can be built in any base, or by your faction in total, is not limited. The effect of them is.
