I don't know about you guys, maybe I am missing something in the menus, but I can't find any place where I can look at a listing of my colonies and see what they are doing, their stats, and jump to them to give them orders. 

Am I wrong or are we expected to click on each and every colony to get a feel for what is happening in your empire? 

I know that many things are changed and usually this is done to make things more intuitive and eliminate underused or ineffective gui from the previous title. But for me a screen with all my colonies info is essential. What am I missing???
