Rydel Expeditions

In 153 and again in 160, expeditions led by Admiral Inesh Rydel tried to locate a useable jump route across the Great Rift from Corridor Sector (rimward) to Deneb Sector. The first expedition originated from Sinta (Corridor 2037) and eventually arrived by various routes at Ashishinipar (Corridor 0931).

Nearly a year was spent trying to find a way to go further, to no avail. A second attempt, made by a different route, ended on Ishirdu (Corridor 0338). This proved closer, but not close enough to Yoma (Deneb 3031), the closest possible world in this area of the rift.

Nine centuries later, Kirshamii Riilam would reach Yoma in a specialized vessel stripped to the essentials and with extra fuel bunkerage.
