outer reaches
Remote frontier zones
The outer reaches are the most distant or remote parts of something—a region, a territory, or an abstract domain.
The phrase suggests areas at the very edge, far from the center or from what's familiar: the outer reaches of the solar system, the outer reaches of human understanding.
It often carries a sense of the unexplored or barely accessible.
