I have anchors up and I ONLY use redstone conduits now. It's the engine itself that over-heats. Is it true that moving it a few blocks from the pump will prevent it from over heating, rather than connecting it directly to it?

Yeah I loved the idea of magma engines in Tekkit (I didn't start until recently) then the new Tekkit came out so the transition was VERY easy. For some reason my nether magma engine overheats and shuts down, but my three that power my redstone energy cells never do. Any tips to keep that one running? Those 3 cells provide all the energy I can use so I'd like to get it running so I don't have to constantly go hit it with a wrench.

I haven't seen any meteors, period. Also the only mineral I've found on the moon was cheese and there was only 6 total from it. My friend and I were so excited for Galacticraft so we could mess with terraforming Mars only to find out we're limited to the moon and our space station and there's almost nothing to do. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

I have a liquid tesseract from the nether that pumps lava to three magma engines which in turn pump energy in to three redstone energy cells. From there they hit an energy tesseract and go upstairs to my machine room where everything is wired in with redstone conductive pipe and works FLAWLESSLY. I have refilled my tanks several times with no issues.

After thinking it was only the night vision, which did help a little, it went back to having the all black texture issue only on placed blocks and creatures/villagers. Any ideas?

So I never post anything because I consider myself to be pretty handy with problem solving, but I've tried everything that I can think of with this issue and have decided to come here and see if anyone could help. I finally made it to the moon, but when I arrived everything but the surface of the moon was pitch black. Even chunks that I broke free showed solid black. I explored a bit and found a Space Testificate village and noticed that from certain angles the color came through. I run Soartex texture pack, so I switched to Sphax, then to the default; no change. I run Optifine D1 Ultra I believe it is so I tried removing that and now everything is completely black. My computer can run most modern games on Ultra settings and not miss a beat and I never have graphics issues with MC, so if you have any advice, please share, because I was so looking forward to a moon base with my friends.
