* The galactic map is a standard module in all cockpits of jump-capable ships.

* Map is presented as a 3D hologram in the cockpit.

* Player can zoom differing levels of view (~~From~~ whole galaxy ~~down to~~ system map ~~and individual stations~~).

* Player can zoom differing levels of view (whole galaxy or system map).

** Analogue Zoom mechanism

*** Seamless from entire galaxy down to stations

** Presets

*** Whole galaxy

**** Geographic space (e.g. Orion spur, Hyades, Pleiades)

**** Player selected area of interest

*** Sectors

**** Sectors are 10 x 10 x 10 light years and shows currently selected sector

*** Systems

==Type of map states==

~~There are four map states that players will be able to move seamlessly through, ranging from a view of the entire galaxy down to a single station or orbital body:~~

'''Galaxy View:''' View key landmark systems and celestial objects, as well as factional space and other points of interest.

'''~~Sector~~ View:''' ~~Individual sectors of 10 x 10 x 10 light years in size can be searched for by their coordinates and viewed.~~

'''System View:''' View your available data on a system.{{clr}}

~~'''Orrery~~ View~~:''' Each star system can be viewed as an orrery, clearly displaying every orbital body’s relative position to their star.~~

'''Single-Mass View:''' Each singular mass can be viewed individually and will display a wealth of information relevant to the player. This could range from the natural resources present on a ~~planet or moon, to the factional allegiance and available markets of a particular station.~~

List of core systems from [[Frontier: Elite II]]. They are based on real systems from our own Milky Way galaxy, so they are very likely to feature in the new [[Elite Dangerous]] game. Once alpha and beta starts, we'll be able to add more information to the table, even creating dedicated pages for each system as it gets explored.[[Star Systems]]
