List of Astronomical Phenomena in Sector A1-0 (A1-0)
The following is a list of phenomena that occur in the space of A1-0. This includes strangely dense nebulae, wormholes, entrances into other dimensions, and other strange disturbances.
Nebulae
Tiyanki Territories
Great Expanse
The Great Expanse has a well deserved name as it forms the eastern border of the region ranging for roughly 300 LY from the galactic south to the galactic north. It's also called the Tiyanki Miasma due to the largest concentration of Tiyanki population. Legends tell that once a Tiyanki reaches its end of life, they travel back within the Great Expanse to join their final resting place. This planet has been named Tiyana Vrok and lies deeply hidden in the Great Expanse. Only very few individuals ever returned from this legendary place as navigation becomes increasingly difficult when closing in to the expanse's heart. Only few organizations, most notably the Jo'Dai Order or experienced smugglers are known to navigate to this planet. Though these routes are usually kept as a close secret in fear that space-whalers might hunt this place for trophies.
Lucent Expanse
The Lucent Expanse, the second largest in the Territories, is famed for its more luminous nature compared to the other expanses. This is due to the abundance of more luminous stars within the expanse that give the expanse a larger presence in the skies around the Tiyanki Territories. Many legends have arisen surrounding these stars and have become many heavenly figures in the many cultures of the Territories. It is said that orbiting one of these bright stars is Trython the seat of the Jo'Dai Order. Its location being the Order's best kept secret yet.
Kelidon Expanse
The Kelidon Expanse is the second smallest expanse of the Territories and is named after its close proximity and exploration effort by the Kelidune of the Kelidon Dominion. Although this expanse remains one of the more less explored ones, it's vibrant with fauna that have attracted many Wheepad hunters to gain more points for the deity, the Scorekeeper.
Owettan Expanse
One of the first expanses in the region to be explored was the Owette as they expanded their Owettan States. Colloquially the expanse has been named after them and has become a popular hiding spot for smugglers from the Owettan States, Sellorian Matriarchy, Swords of Cronum and the Ch'Rattan Cartel's illicit businesses.
Teal Expanse
Contrary to the other expanses, the teal Expanse has a more blueish appearance instead of the yellow-orange standard. It's also seen as the most mysterious of all expanses having been the least explored. Few individuals enter this expands and the very few that return tell stories of the Alarian Queendom whose matriarchal Alari have created many myths of their status as Teal Angels.
The Strip
The Strip is a region of space of roughly 100 LY that is sparsely consisting of star systems to the galactic west of the Teal Expanse. It's mostly known as a hideout for smugglers and pirates before targeting nearby civilizations. Although it's perhaps most known as the home of the Zeltrex Freehold, a lavish hedonistic confederacy of sedentary Zeltrex that welcomes all to partake in their extravagant way of life.
Holy Imperium of Trianar
Southern Red Nebula
The Southern Red Nebula is a nebula that encompasses the entire south border of Trianar. It is the only home of the Daikarn.
Badlands
Veentu Badlands
Bordering the Stoinian Star Kingdom, Treecuu Star Empire, Dovian Star Confederation and Akropii Republic, it is the only badlands in all of Sector A1-0 to be named and explored.
Wormholes
Middleton
The Middleton Wormhole is a wormhole that links the Stoinian Star Kingdom and Venterran Federation (A1-0). Its discovery started the Stoino-Venterran War.
