On two occasions after I've discovered a ship, I get a message pointing me to a spot where the system name is null so instead of saying "pointing to a location near the <system> system", the <system> part is omitted.

You can see one of the messages in question by sorting on the message list by name, it should be the first one. If not, the date on it is 2129.08.17, where it says it's "pointing to a location in the Ylisea Arm near the system in sector H8".

What it actually points to with the blue circle is a spot on the orbit of a planet, but the actual planet is on the opposite side of the system (and not because it moved since the notification appeared), and there isn't anything there anyway (so it's not pointing to a pirate base I wasn't aware of or something).
