I'm GMing a game of rogue trader tomorrow. I've only ever ran one other game and it was a year ago. Any tips for a noob GM?

Don't be a dick.
Plan, but remain flexible.
Be willing to make something up if the alternative is grinding the game to a halt by digging through the rulebook.
Don't be a dick.
Reward players for ingenuity.
Don't reward players for metagaming.
Don't be a dick.
Remember that the game is collaborative, not a novel, so player decisions should matter.

Haha well noted. I'll keep being a dick to a minimum. Also I do have a tm screen. If I make one, what should I put on it?

Anything else?

Expect the players to try and solve everything through orbital bombardment.

What kind of an RT campaign are you thinking of running? Like, will it be more politics and intrigue focused, star-trek exploration, pirates and combat?

It's possible to do it a number of different ways depending on how many players you have, what classes/backstories they have, and (most importantly) what you and your players want to get out of the game.
