Thats what I thought, since the thing is basically a party barge with no weapons it wouldn't make much since to have it be vulnerable.
I can't wait to decorate...

Mates - though the starter ship has no hyperdrive you can still travel to other locations using it.
I don't know if this is a bug but since it has been in beta, too - I think it is in there intentionally. The "trick" is when you are at the launching terminal you choose your startership and then choose the "travel" button to the lower right of the window instead of the "launch into space" button.
You pick the starport you want to go to and click on "travel" again. -> Loading screen -> Arrival at the desired location. You can then go to the launching terminal at your destination and launch into space there.
So you are not really stuck in the first sector you choose in the beginning - you just can't switch sectors "as easy" as you can with a hyperdrive as you have to land on a planet first.
