Docking Ring
From Discovery Wiki

Docking rings are a entry and exit point of planetary space lift.
Description
Planet Cambridge docking ring
Planet Cambridge mooring fixture
Orbiting planetary docking rings provide smaller ships a controlled entry and exit to/from planet's atmosphere. Docking rings open up when docking sequence is initiated. Their appearance is a lot like goggles. The ring on the right serves planet-bound traffic and the left ring traffic coming from the planet to outer space. Docking rings also have defensive turrets mounted on them to engage hostiles foolish enough to venture too close.
Mooring Fixture
Capital size ships are to big to fly through the docking rings so they need to use mooring fixture located above the docking rings.
