The Galactic Core is the center of The Galaxy.[1]
A vast stellar mass of mostly uncharted stars and planets, the Galactic Core's worlds are known to be phenomenally rich in rare resources but dangerously unpredictable. The region suffers from frequent ionic reefs, null-zones, and nomadic singularities that make Warp travel hazardous. Occasionally, planets will move out of the Galactic Core, often into the Maelstrom Zone, where the Imperium can finally access the cores much-coveted rare minerals and isotopes.[1] Inside the Galactic Core is a nebula known as The Cradle, a rich source of precious metals, ores, and energy. The Demiurg, as well as Human Pirates, are active in this region of space.[2]
The Galactic Core has become the region of the Galaxy most heavily affected by the formation of the Great Rift. It is now utterly consumed by Warp Rifts and the Imperium is unsure if anything within it can even survive.[4]
