Dark Nebula
From Transformers Wiki
Dark Nebula (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.
