The Barrier is a Asteroid Cluster in the Diram-System within the Ruby Wave Nebula. It is the 6th celestial body within the system. It is classified as Hazard Zone.
Commonly known as the barrier this area marks the so far impenetrable south-eastern border of the known territory. The reason for this are the asteroids themselves. While not overly large or fast moving, they consist of a highly volatile mineral known as Caenium, which reacts to minimal changes in temperature and, in some cases electromagnetic impulses, making starship passage through this area with current technology virtually impossible.
