The Dasha region or Dasha system is a region of space located in the periphery of Galactic Federation space. [1] The region houses the rogue planet Aether, where the events of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes take place.

Despite being a rogue planet, Aether is mentioned being a part of the "Dasha System" in the Space Pirate Logs [1] as well as in the logs left by GFMC Task Force Herakles. [2] It is unclear whether this is a mistake in the game's script or not. The game offers no further evidence of a planetary system and also refers to Aether as a rogue planet.[3]. Rogue planets are planets located outside solar systems.

Our orders are to establish a base on planet Aether and evaluate local Phazon resources. Because this world lies on the periphery of Galactic Federation territory, we are following stealth protocols at the highest level. A cadre of elite commandos has been dispatched to provide security for our force as well. This operation is now under way." —Space Pirate Logs: Log 04.468.1 (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
