Any star system with terraformed worlds in it is shown with a coloured square on the galactic map. They might not be active worlds, and they might not even be online, but they are owned by someone and are potentially places to visit.

The other star systems contain planets that haven't been terraformed. Ie, there's nothing there to see.

Probably :]

Tsk Tsk Fooli. :P

Currenly M-24 Has nothing.
Why do I know this? Check the galatic map. You should notice that some of the stars are white instead of grey. From what I found a white dot means the system has a named planet.
Every planet that is not named is named unknown (#) where # is some number. (You can't get there buy infimping so don't try,unknown,unknown (123),etc just don't work)

Look at the waay topleft corner and you'll see a star named Dude. Since it has a white dot it should at least have one named planet. No one knows but the staff and the person who bought the star. We don't have stardrives that go 1000 parasecs yet but when we do,all planets will be found out. :)

i think a white dot with no square just means the star was named.

so what if the star dude has a white dot. every single named star has a white dot instead of a square. look towards the middle of the right half of the top, the star named Zoric. it has a white dot, it has been white ever since it was named zoric, yet thier was never anything in it but unknown planets, and yes i have been in it to see. thiers also stars named asteresk 8, clare, jemrada, xerby co and many others. they all have white dots instead of grey, but no square.

if a white dot means thiers a named planet, then thiers dozens of named planets that aren't in any world list, have never, ever been talked about, or nobody has ever heard of. for one or two planets that would be possible, but not for dozens.

if you also look at m-209, it has named planets but has a grey dot instead of a white dot.

Tsk tsk? Tsch :] Yup, the bright white dots are just stars that have been named. Coloured squares, which is wot I said, mean a system has owned planets. So yay for that :]
