Helix Nebula

Helix Nebula is the 16th Interstellar Object, the 1st Nebula and the 1st Planetary obtained in the Beyond (Unlocked at Rank 22, branching off of TRAPPIST-1 System), which can generate Stardust .
==In-Game Description==
==Traits and Constellations==
Helix Nebula is affected by the rare traits Cosmic Dust, and the epic traits Cosmology, Dark Matter, and Dark Energy. It is also affected by the constellations Eridanus, Perseus, and Ara.

Speed 	Double Ring 	Spanning 2.5 light years, the Helix gas cloud has a puzzling shape: two rings instead of one. An inner disk is bisected by an outer one tilted at almost 90 degrees. As the nebula orbits the Milky Way, the leading edge collides with interstellar matter and flattens. 	
Payout	Cometary Knots	Thousands of knots of gas swarm the edge of the inner disk, trailing comet-like tails. Each knot is twice as big as our solar system. They form when fresh, hot gas overruns cooler gas and condenses. The tails stretch away from the star, blown by relentless stellar wind.	Double Ring

Ring Nebula 	A typical planetary nebula persists for only 10,000 years or so before the gas dissipates. The Ring Nebula is a young one that’s still growing. Ultraviolet light from its fading star energizes the gas, making it glow. 	Helix Nebula Rank 3
Tycho’s Supernova	On November 11, 1572, astronomer Tycho Brahe saw a type 1a supernova. As a dead red giant shed its shell, a white dwarf lapped up the gas. When the dwarf hit critical mass, a nuclear chain reaction triggered an explosion. The remnant, a planetary nebula, still glows.	Helix Nebula Rank 6
== Trivia ==
Helix Nebula (also known as NGC 7293 or Caldwell 63) is a planetary nebula located in the constellation Aquarius.
