FTL travel might depend on hyperspace of some sorts. Propably a convenient 2 dimensional one that makes maps easier to read. Or on wormhols (the sf version not the physics version) which is a lot like one dimensional hyperspace. Now due to rare events the mapping of hyperspace to real space might change, or wormholes cease to exist. Which means that planets can simply fall off the charts and for all practical purposes have sailed off into the dark.
