Bralspace is a relatively small sphere (about 1 billion miles radius) containing thousands of small asteroids and planetoids, most of which are arranged in 5 belts. The sphere is named for the Rock of Bral, one of the most well known spelljamming ports in the Material Plane.
Flying in and out of Bralspace is a simple matter as 12 permanent openings are located on the sphere's surface, each within a constellation of star-like lights. The constellations are called Scavver, Kraken, Starbeast, Kindori, Neogi, Dragon, Sarphardin, Giff, Beholder, Eagle, Griffon, and Lion.

¶ Sources
The Rock of Bral is from the Spelljammer campaign setting. In the original setting material, no home sphere is given to the Rock. This version of Bralspace comes largely from the fan site spelljammer.org, except that, in the Aethervane campaign the planet Barbuda is located in Islandspace instead of Bralspace.
