Hadex Anomaly
"We do not see its light. Rather, we percieve a reflection of an ultimate darkness predating the universe."
The spatial anomaly Hadex, also known as the "red hole" is a galactic anomaly of unknown origins, located in the Eastern Fringe.[1] The Hadex Anomaly is located at the core of the Jericho Reach.[2d]
Overview
Defying categorisation, and possibly even being sentient, the Hadex Anomaly is believed to constantly spew time from other dimensions into the southern spiral arm of the galaxy, distorting any attempts to control or monitor it.[1] On occasions, it outright reorders the flow of events.[4b] The outskirts of Hadex are dotted with ghost ships, trapped there in a kind of stasis field.[1] The stars near the anomaly are contaminated by it, and are known as the Charon Stars.[2a] The Hadox Anomaly expands and recedes with no clear rhythm, covering and unveiling entire solar systems over the course of decades.[2d]
History
The Hadex Anomaly first manifested in 656.M40, and became visible instantaneously across Ultima Segmentum regardless of distance. This fact stands in defiance of all natural laws of the physical universe.[2b]

Notes
On the Galactic Map after the Great Rift appearance, the Hadex Anomaly was stated to be a Warp Storm.[3] Even before, scholars studying it would superficially categorize it as that, as it was noted as a clearly warp/real space overlap.[4b]
