farthest reach

Most distant point

The farthest reach is the most distant point something extends to—the outer boundary of influence, territory, or capability.

The empire's farthest reach extended to the mountains.

It often appears in plural form: the farthest reaches of space, the farthest reaches of the imagination.

The phrase suggests places or limits at the edge of what's known or accessible.
