Or just rework it entirely. I’ve done exploring runs and it doesn’t do anything I wouldn’t have done anyway (I.e. check out every planet for ruins/goodies). If it highlighted all stations, debris fields and derelict ships (almost like a super sensor pulse), in addition to its current purpose, it would be more useful.
If it actually surveyed the planet it might be a nice, but optional, QoL skill. Of course you couldn’t pick up ruins but you’d know they’re there. Of course, that would sidestep the resource cost of surveying so that’s probably a no-go.
