The Kentrikos Cluster is a medium-sized globular cluster that orbits the Phanes Galaxy. It was discovered by Domninus Kerularios in 1779. The star cluster is currently above the Phanes Galaxy's beta quadrant, somewhat close to the galactic core. It has a spatial diamter of around 93 light years and countains several hundred thousand stars. It is fairly dense.
The cluster was originally called "Messier 107" but was renamed by the Rhomaions after the Greek word for "Central." It is likely that coining the term "central" is remniscent of Rhomaion ethnocentrism.
Currently, the the entire star cluster is under the Rhomaion Empire.
History
Colonizers from other worlds discovered that the cluster was once home to an extremely high-tech alien civilization through discovering their remnants. The reason for their disappearance has remained a mystery, though more information about their civilization and technology has been gradually acquired through study of their remnants. These remnants are estimated to constitute less than 0.1% of what remains of the aliens. Their damage also makes them incredibly difficult to study. Regardless, alien and Rhomaion colonizers have found valuable information through these records that resulted in great technological advances.
The species seemed to very closely resemble human beings. As a result, some Rhomaion scholars have speculated that the species was a Lost Tribe of Israel, which was smitten by God over their abuse of technology. This stands in contrast to radiometric dating demonstrating that the alien civilization predates the first humans. Though some alien writings suggest that the aliens discovered the ability to hijack the spacetime fabric, which may potentially explain such a mismatch. Provided that the context of these writings is unknown, it is impossible to confirm whether they are works of fiction or descriptions of reality.
