>Definition:     Great Barrier

As used in canon:

   'ach HoD, Hevetlh wIghoSchugh veH tIn wI'el maH'e'!
   But Captain, that course will take *us* into the [Great]
   Barrier as well. ST5

Cf. {veH} "boundary, frontier, barrier":

   jogh veH lungIv
   They patrol the quadrant border. KGT

   veH Qav 'oH logh'e'
   space - the final frontier DS99

Don't confuse the Great Barrier at the center of our galaxy surrounding the 
planet {QI'tu'} *Qui'Tu* (i.e. "Paradise") with the {qIbHeS} "galactic rim" 
at the outer edge of the galaxy.
