Indeed out of our reach, the only way we will ever come any closer to the far reaches of the galaxy and universe any time soon is through the development of stronger and more advanced instruments for observing the heavens.

Each section of Beyond he Rim contains information on one specific type of phenomenon found beyond our solar system. For many of these, all we know about them is hypothetical. Perhaps some day we will know for sure.
