** Put with more complexity, it's a map of jumpspace. Alternately, it's a map of slices of the galaxy; each hex goes from the top to the bottom, with at most one star system of interest is in any hex, and star systems in adjacent hexes are of close enough "altitude" that no one worries about it much in-universe. Star systems are not necessarily in the exact center of their hexes, and occupy a tiny portion of the hex.
