-The '''Helix Nebula '''is a small [[nebula]] located approximately 700 lightyears from [[Sol]], below the[[Galactic Plane| galactic plane.]] Although there should be a [[Stars#White Dwarfs .28D.2C DA.2A.2C DB.2A.2C DC.2A.2C DO.2A.2C DQ.2C DX.29|white dwarf]] star in the middle of the nebula, there are no systems inside the nebula. This means the nebula can be only viewed from nearby systems, such as CSI-21-22270.

+The '''Helix Nebula''' is a small [[nebula]] in the [[Inner Orion Spur]] located approximately 700 light-years from [[Sol]], below the [[Galactic Plane]]. Although the nebula was formed by a decaying star that should have created or be in the process of creating a [[Stars#White Dwarfs .28D.2C DA.2A.2C DB.2A.2C DC.2A.2C DO.2A.2C DQ.2C DX.29|white dwarf]], there are no stars of any kind within the nebula. Consequently, the Helix Nebula cannot be traveled to directly, and can only be observed from nearby systems, such as CSI-21-22270.
