It would be a bit problematic if you had to spend several years travelling at light speed to get to another solar system. If the planets are really earth sized, wouldn't it take basically forever to explore even one? It's hard to grasp the idea of that much content being in a game; I've never seen anything like it.
All I know is they've talked about you having to get upgrades for your ship to be able to travel farther. Maybe there will be jump gates as well. You can acquire money various ways, pirate, trader, mining stuff, selling animals I think, and doing escort missions are among some of the various things they've named. Not all planets will have life, some will have hostile enviornments you will need to upgrade your suit for. Instead of having a weapon the only thing they've talked about is your multitool. Which you can upgrade too I think. The animals are generated based on the planets property's. I cannot wait for this one.
