The Ovomly sector in the Vulcan Gate region was notable for being inaccessible in the early days of exploration, when not only could frame shift drives not lock on to its systems, but querying their data from the galaxy map had also produced glitches in ship computers. However, once Universal Cartographics fixed the data corruption issue, the sector became accessible once again. Subsequent explorers found no anomalies in the sector, and after the initial scouting, it attracted little attention. Some years later, the Ovomly sector became an area of interest once again when unique Notable Stellar Phenomena were found there: torus mollusks, the only known spaceborne lifeforms that live near white dwarf stars.
