	'''Starzones''': These may be deep space or near a star. They are such things as unusually dense (hollywood-style) asteroid or cometary drifts or nebulae. In exceptionally unusual cases Starzones may have habitable worlds (in which case they presumably have a local sun) and the gateway is the habitable world and its surrounding mass of space junk. As habitable worlds are very rare in Starzones, they discard 2/3 (rounded up and most valuable first) of any habitable cards put on them.		'''Starzones''': These may be deep space or near a star.

	'''Deep Space''': A few star lanes 'dip' back into the sidereal universe in the depth of interstellar space. Aside from the rare wandering comet these places are entirely bereft of anything interesting, though their position light-years from any star makes them an excellent place to put highly sensitive radio telescopes for astronomic observation. Habitable cards may not be placed in deep space for reasons that should be obvious.		'''Deep Space''': A few star lanes 'dip' back into the sidereal universe in the depth of interstellar space.
