History & Background

The False Bridge Trace is accessible by conventional jump-2 vessels.

The worlds of the False Bridge Trace were extensively surveyed during the 37th century, during the Third Confederation. One of the survey vessels known to have been operating in the area was the Range Valentine, commanded by one Lieutenant Axel Sorsa: see also Sorsa's World.

The Axasorsa system, is the homeworld of the sophont Jellyfish. The species are also found on Kedol and have certainly inhabited it for tens of thousands of years. The circumstances leading to their presence on that world are not clear.

Mengo, the informal capital of Shadow Rift Sector, lies at the coreward end of the Trace. It was the last system to have a verifiable sighting of a Voyager, in 4570AD.
