The Sagittarius Reach is a vast of expanse of uncharted space, thousands of light years from Federation space. Situated at the edge of the Milky Way, one of the dominant features of this region is that it incorporates a small section of the toroidal Galactic Barrier first encountered by Starfleet in 2265. Because of the dangerous effects that the Barrier had on those sensitive to Extra Sensory Perception, the Reach has been unexplored outside of the disused automated lithium cracking station on [[Delta Vega I]]. | The Sagittarius Reach is a vast of expanse of uncharted space, thousands of light years from Federation space.

The ''[[USS Columbia]]'' is the first manned Federation vessel to explore this distant region following three separate incidents involving the USS ''Enterprise'' in the mid 23rd century. The Galactic Barrier’s ability to uplift individuals into omnipotence as well as the damaging effect that traversing the barrier has on starships caused Starfleet Command to ban all manned exploration of this distant corner of the galaxy. In late 2394 the Federation Quadros XII probe reported that energy readings and the mass of the barrier itself had shrank and analysts decided to begin an exploratory program. | The ''[[USS Columbia]]'' is the first manned Federation vessel to explore this distant region following three separate incidents involving the USS ''Enterprise'' in the mid 23rd century.
