Deep Core

The Deep Core (also known as the Deep Galactic Core) was a small region in the galaxy, about seven thousand light years across, that hid unusual worlds. The Deep Core was home to some thirty billion of the galaxy's oldest stars, and at its center was a massive black hole surrounded by antimatter and dense clusters where stars were only a hundredth of a light year apart. In some areas they were in such close proximity, stars would collide and rip the cores from each other. Due to the gravitational pull of the vast number of stars, local space-time was severely warped, making hyperspace travel difficult at best. The region was thought to be inaccessible, but certain individuals found safe hyperlanes into the region, such as the Byss Run and the Deep Core Run. Darth Bane traveled to Prakith in 980 BBY and, almost a millennium later, Emperor Palpatine built a stronghold on Byss. The area remained an Imperial stronghold almost twenty years after the Battle of Endor.
