The Boekh Association is a somewhat isolated patch of some 350 x 100 x 100 light years that is home to a large population of young and massive stars of B and O-type. What makes it unusual is the fact that it is located appr. 750 light years below the galactic plane, an area not commonly identified with the formation of such a massive star population. One explanation could be the numerous neutron stars in that same patch of space. Each one is testament to a supernova blast and a subsequent shockwave ploughing through and compressing the interstellar material, which may in turn have led to the collapse of a molecular cloud. The area is highly intersting and fascinating to travel and exploration frequency so far has been low there.
