Default Any way to list enemy ships?

I often spend a great deal of time scanning the map, looking for enemy ships. Can I somehow get a list of enemy ships that have been spotted?

Thanks,
Merry

Look at the galaxy map.
Any system with an alien presence will have a triangle marker instead of a simple circle.

Thank you, SJ. But, the triangle only says there is at least one ship, right? What if there are two, and the ship set blends in to the background. Is there some way to find enemy ships within a system?

also once you have scanned an enemy ship its design appears in the designs box. this has been helpful at keeping track of enemy tech progress.

That is too bad. If I wanted to exploid this, I might design a ship set where all the ships look like little clusters of stars that match the background. No one would ever see me coming...!
