Where have you visited so far? Usually I'd think you've encountered something other than the ship within a few hours, and most of the things you can encounter should give you ideas as to what else to explore. Have you literally only floated around in the ship, or is that a way of saying that the things you've found aren't interesting to you?
Mostly the latter. Let's see... I fell into the sun, got eaten by a huge fish, drowned in some water, suffocated on a moon with no atmosphere (and figured out what the suit is for). And just plain gotten my ship into a place it couldn't escape from, mostly by getting stuck in the trees on my home planet nor far from the launch site. But I did talk to the guy on the Attlerock (is that the right name?) who whistles. I guess that's something.
Really, these all just seem like random encounters and I am not learning anything yet. I get the "keep exploring" idea, but I would think there would be some sort of clue by now what I am looking for or why, but everyone I talk to is all, "keep exploring".
Use the ships log computer to give you an objective. It should have some areas filled in now from your exploring. Find something to do from there.
Once you start blasting off with an objective it becomes so much more fun.
You haven't been playing wrong, but the transition from aimlessly exploring to "going out on a mission" is something that loses people.
