From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Sometime at the dawn of the Imperium but before the [[Horus Heresy]], the Eye of Terror was discovered by Imperial explorers in what was presumably a fairly remote region of the galaxy, and Imperial scholars named is ''Cygnus X-1''. The Eye didn't come into prominence until it was later discovered by the [[Word Bearers]], who had arrived officially for conquest, but actually on a personal mission for renewed faith, and it was here that they discovered the [[Chaos|"Primordial Truth"]]. It would later be visited by the [[Emperor's Children]] and the [[Iron Warriors]], intent on an expedition within the eye for the search of the Angel Exterminatus. Before embarking upon this journey, [[Perturabo]] had formally named the Eye of Terror.{{Fn|7}}{{Fn|8}}
Old star charts all came to map the Eye of Terror with the legend "Abandon hope all ye who enter here".{{Fn|1414a}}
