Briar Patch

The Briar Patch (or Klach D'Kel Brakt) is a region of dangerous space matter created by the remains of supernovae and metaphasic radiation located in Sector 441 of the Beta Quadrant. All vessels that enter the region must travel at reduced impulse power so that their impulse manifolds do not become overheated, and the use of Warp Drive is not an option.
