I think the most impressive feature that I've seen so far is how much you can do under high time warp. Attitude control, thrust, aerobraking, even whole automated maneuvers can be done with surprising accuracy at relatively high warp values. I've been having fun flying around the system torch-ship style: e.g. Mars to Jupiter in under 20 days sim time and maybe 20 minutes real time. I think it really bodes well for what this game will be capable of in the future.
I hope we eventually gets some tools for constant-thrust navigation, though obviously that's not a trivial feature. I'd love for solar/nuclear-electric propulsion to be a more central technology instead of just a side show like in KSP, not to mention the potential for late-game torch-drives (which are also much easier to navigate).
