====== Cocoon Sector ======

**Position:** -4x, 1y, [[:Orion Arm]]

**Faction Presence:** None

**Stellar Density:** Very Dense

The Cocoon Sector lies towards the Leading edge of the [[:Orion Sphere]]. It is a dense region towards the centre of the Orion Arm, and contains the Cocoon Nebula, a volume of gas and dust lit by a bright cluster of recently-formed stars. The area is at the frontier of known space, and has seen little exploration or surveying activity.

Although none of this sector has been claimed by any Faction, it lies close to the borders of the [[:Ascendancy]], [[:Free Union]] and [[:Commonality]]. The border tensions and conflict between those Factions has thus far prevented much expansion towards the region.
