; System view
The system view offers an up-close look at a particular star system. The player can visually locate planets, stations and fleets with relative ease.

The following (clickable) actions are available in this map view:
* Celestial body name - Opens a summary screen of the celestial body and further possible actions depending on the celestial body ([[terraforming]], [[anomaly|anomaly research]] etc.). If the celestial body is colonizable (and surveyed) a planet-surface screen will be available too.
* Station name - Opens a summary screen of the station and further possible actions depending on the station type ([[spaceport]]s, [[observation post]]s etc.).
* System arrow - The triangles pointing outside the system represent the nearest star system from each direction. Clicking on a green arrow (an explored system) will change the view to that system. Hovering over an arrow will provide information on intel level, surveyed progress and ownership.
* Exclamation point - Those represent a project (listed under the [[Situation log]]) that will progress a quest or give a reward upon completation
