Is there any kind of repository or map of the galactic structures that explorers navigate?
Things like how there is a thin layer of dead stars just under the galactic plane, slicing through the bubble and elsewhere. Or the shape and location of the "black hole farm" regions. (do we even have names for these structures?)
Much like the grizzled old-timer seafarer spinning a yarn about the seas, there is a huge amount of accumulated understanding here of the ebbs and flows of the galaxy, but I've only really encounted it as word of mouth, comments cropping up during discussions, etc. I haven't seen it accumulated or organized somewhere. Is it organized somewhere?
(Heh, I'm struggling to think how the knowledge could even be made into a good map, unless it's an interactive 3D thing like the powerplay bubble overlay on the galaxy map.)
