| The closest part of the [[:Saggitarius Arm]] to the [[:Orion Arm]], the Near Saggitarius Sector is the main frontier of human exploration towards the galactic centre. Scientific and surveying expeditions have been passing through this sector for about a thousand years, but the Free Union has only established a permanent foothold in the past few centuries. As warp drives become faster and more energy-efficient it has become easier to push into this region of space, and the sector has gained somewhat of a "gold rush" feel to it. Colonists, surveyors, scientists and corporate money is pouring into the sector, and bringing a flood of con artists, charlatans, opportunists and treasure hunters with it. | The closest part of the [[:Saggitarius Arm]] to the [[:Orion Arm]], the Near Saggitarius Sector is the main frontier of human exploration towards the galactic centre.
