This is one of several anomalies found throughout the galaxy. For reasons unknown, hyperdrives refuse to lock on to the stars in this area of space, effectively making it impassable to deep space travellers. Pilots are thus required to either avoid this area or to plot a course above, below or around it. What may be found within this restricted area remains largely a mystery for the time being.

Early deep-space exlorers travelling this region reported on mysterious fluctuating behavior from their nav-computers, at times restricting entry into several systems within the Horsehead Dark Region but at other times allowing it. This was first reported as early as november 3300 (source).
The image below is supposedly taking from deep within the Horsehead Nebula itself. It shows the obstructed view towards the galactic core, from an area that are these days restricted to hyperspace travel (source).
