Lantaru sector

An area of Federation space which was the location of a classified research station studying the Omega molecule in the 23rd century. The project was overseen by Dr. Ketteract. After a single molecule was created, it exploded, destroying the station and causing ruptures in subspace extending several light years, making warp travel impossible in the region first observed by rescue vessels attempting to reach the station. By the 24th century many people believed it was due to a natural phenomenon.
