This has probably been reported, and I made a report in the Steam discussion forum, but I didn't see it in the 'known bugs' section.
Currently have a repeatable bug in my save where, upon entering the map while also in travel mode with a waypoint pointed at a jump gate (potentially unrelated to the waypoint, not 100 percent sure), it will double the distance to that location. Exiting and reentering the map will double it again, with the maximum distance I was able to get was 40000 km from the gate (way off the populated map, that's about 4 hours of travel time at my top travel mode speed just FYI).
I've been able to reproduce this three separate times, all during travel mode (first two times, I thought I misjudged my initial distance, final time I had realized it was a bug and pushed it as far as it would go, hence the 40000 km distance).
EDIT - just an extra bug report / issue, though I haven't been able to reproduce is. Other than just being kind of generally poor, the tutorial triggering mechanism definitely needs some work and is very finicky. I had to abandon and restart multiple tutorials to complete them. Additionally, at some points during the tutorials the menu or buttons would freeze up and stop responding to some commands - for example I'd stop being able to throttle up or down, but could still steer. Cycling in and out of menus 'fixed' it. I'm not sure if this issue is limited to tutorials, but if it's not, it would be pretty significant.

Re: Ship moving thousands of KM when accessing menu's
Yes, this is a known issue, and we're trying to reproduce it ourselves so that we can then try and fix it.

Re: Ship moving thousands of KM when accessing menu's
Same issue here. In the map selecting any object, closing map, aligning to the object, activating travel mode. Entering the map and exiting every time the distance grow about 100km, seems the ship is fliyng backwards.

Re: Ship moving thousands of KM when accessing menu's
As already mentioned, this is a known issue and we're working on it. If you have a case which is consistently reproducible fairly quickly from a specific savegame then feel free to send me a link to it, uploaded somewhere, and I'll pass it on to the relevant person.

Re: Ship moving thousands of KM when accessing menu's
Hello, i have same issue. But i think it is NOT savegame reproducible.
I have workaround for this "bug". Save the game (F5), reload (F9) and that's it. The game works correctly again (for some time, until the error appears again).
This means that the error is not stored in savegame.
On this screen of the map is clearly visible the progress of ship "jumps". https://ctrlv.cz/Z4aA The screen is captured after reload, then is possible open map without error.

Re: 1.0 BUG Ship moving thousands of KM when accessing menu's
This should have been fixed in Build 1.10.
