    noticed some missions can be really short but are still a decent size. are there secrets or items I can unlock if I explore every grid?

    If you watch Rambo backwards, it's Sylvester Stallone healing people with his magical bullet vacuum.

    Not that I know of, I think you get all the loot on the map by just completing the mission.

    I partly tested this on a mission where a UFO landed (rather than being shot down).

    I dealt with the aliens immediately outside the craft first, then saved the game. First attempt I went in slowly, room by room, killed everyone and got the loot. I then reloaded, and rushed my team to the room with just the last enemy - avoiding two rooms in the ship which contained working ships navigation and working power core. At the end results screen I still got those despite those rooms still being covered by fog of war.

    Maybe not the most comprehensive test of the exploration, but I think so long as you either kill all the aliens present, or otherwise complete the missions objectives you get everything.
