Each galaxy square has its own grid "underneath" it, representing the solar system, and ship locations also persist within that solar system. So if you are by Earth, and you need to do some shit at Pluto, you have to actually move there. (This grid is very granular... think 1000x1000 rather than the galaxy map which is more like 40x40 or whatever.)

(This "underneath" grid is where tactical combat takes place. So rather than combat being "instanced", as I heard it put, combat can stretch over a number of turns, because the ships are still there, still next to each other around Pluto (or whatever) and still fucking each others' shit up.)
