Course Sector lies on the trailing edge of the [[Distant Fringe]]. It is divided by the [[Moat Rifts]], which run coreward-rimward through the center of the sector and join the [[Great Void]]. It contains 133 systems and has a listed population of approximately 70.66 million [[sophont]]s. [[Ragol Subsector]] (subsector A) contains the [[Ragol Drift]], a narrow corridor of stars that leads into [[Bourne Sector]]. [[Saldazar Subsector]] (subsector I) connects directly to [[Far Home Sector]]. Both subsectors are accessible to [[Conventional Pattern Starships|conventional]] jump-2 vessels travelling from the [[Distant Fringe]].
