Dark Nebula (location)

Dark Nebula

Dark Nebulae (暗黒星雲 Ankoku Seiun) are interstellar clouds so dense, not even light can get through, hence why they appear to be dark. It takes special equipment or a lot of power to enter or leave the nebula, which makes it a great place to stick things you really don't want roaming the vastness of space.

Fiction

Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity

Victory cartoon

500,000 years ago, Deathsaurus built his Planet-Destroying Fortress in a bid to become the next Emperor of Destruction. When this information reached the Autobots, they moved out under command of Star Saber to get the weapon out of the Decepticons' grasp. Rather than destroying it, they locked the fortress in a gravity cell, draining the energy out of it and steering it straight into the Dark Nebula.

After somehow escaping the Nebula and developing a magnetic field to allow him to move freely through the gravity well, Deathsaurus spent the next several millennia searching for enough energy to reactivate and free his fortress from the Dark Nebula. After such a long imprisonment, however, he grew doubtful the Planet-Destroying Fortress could still be revived, so he and the Dinoforce flew the Thunder Arrow into the Dark Nebula, with a good amount of energy in its hold. With the energy, the fortress was briefly brought online, assuring Deathsaurus his efforts weren't for naught.
