You CAN'T see how many systems there are or where they are at the start of the game. I.e. line-of-sight galaxy exploration. Would add to the realism factor, and IMO would not deduce from playability too much.
Were it not for telescopes, I would agree. 16th century astronomers and mathematicians were able to make a decent map of the space surrounding Sol. Perhaps some limited range around your systems for the system locations you can see, based on technology level? Of course, this all depends on how large the map is supposed to be... Some sort of control over the distance each square on the galaxy map represents would be great.
