The Course Sector is considered to be a part of the Distant Fringe. It forms a part of the Empty Stars.
Description
A sector located to trailing of the Distant Fringe proper. It is divided by the Moat Rifts, which run coreward-rimward through the center of the sector and join the Great Void. The settled spinward edge of Course Sector is a part of the Demon Cluster, the Distant Fringe: the rest of the sector is largely unexplored wilderness. The positions and types of its stars have been cataloged as part of the University of Tal Varisa Deep Sky Program.
