A '''nebula''' is an interstellar cloud of [[matter]], usually [[gas]]es (such as [[hydrogen]]) and dust. Many nebulae are [[stellar nursery|stellar nurseries]].
Since [[sensor]]s and other systems functioned poorly in some nebulae, they Nebulae (''this spelling being the plural'') were often used by [[starship]]s to strategic advantage in conflictssometimes known as "interstellar dust clouds."
[[Captain]] [[Rudolph Ransom|Ransom]] once hid from a [[Klingon Bird-of-Prey]] for three days in a nebula near [[Epsilon IV]].
While the {{USS|Voyager}} was undergoing a maintenance overhaul in Since [[2377sensor]]s and other systems function poorly in some nebulae, the ''they have been known to be used by [[Delta Flyer II]]'' searched a nebula near [[Annari]] space for [[dilithiumstarship]]s to strategic advantage in conflicts.
Later that year, a ship crewed by ==Nebula Classifications==[[HirogenFile:Paulson Nebula.jpg|thumb|right|<center>Paulson Nebula]] [[Iden's RebellionFile:Planetary neb.jpg|thumb|right|prey holograms<center>A planetary nebula]], led by [[Iden]], hid from two Hirogen {{ShipClassFile:Proto neb.jpg|thumb|right|Venatic}} hunting vessels inside a <center>Proto-nebula. In response, the [[Unnamed Hirogen|Hirogen Alpha]] ordered one of his ships to circle the nebula, while the other entered it to drive the [[hologram]]s outFIle:Nursery. Iden eventually left the nebula on his own to "liberate" three holograms on a nearby [[Nuu'Barijpg|thumb|right|<center>A stellar nursery]] vessel.

*'''Dichromic nebula''' - Have intense gravimetric distortions. Dichromic acid (H2Cr2O7) is the fully-protonated form of the dichromate ion, <br>and both are powerful oxidizing agents. Dichromic acid leaves trace amounts of ions that can interfere with instruments used to observe and measure local magnetic fields. *'''Emission nebula''' - These nebula emit their own light, due to the presence of ultraviolet radiation from very hot, young stars inside. <br>Cloaking devices were useless inside emission nebulae. *'''Hydrogen cloud''' - Composed entirely or mostly of hydrogen molecules, the dominant hydrogen is mostly neutral, rather than ionized or molecular. *'''Inversion nebula''' - Made up of unstable plasma strands, Federation astro-theorists theorized that these nebulae were so unstable, <br>they would burn out within a few years, but the phenomenon had never been actually seen in the [[Alpha Quadrant]]. *'''Planetary nebula''' - Created by expelled matter of a star reaching the end of its life, also considered an ''emission nebula.'' *'''Proto-nebula''' - Newly-forming interstellar dust clouds, these nebulae sometimes had intense gravimetric forces, and could give off plasma surges. *'''Protostellar nebula''' - Contain high levels of particle flux, which prevent starships from staying inside for more than 72 hours <br>(though could also hide them from sensor scans). These are sometimes also called [[wikipedia:Protoplanetary nebula|Proto-planetary nebulae]]. *'''Stellar nursery''' - Where multiple stars are formed, perhaps not all at once, but during the same time period. <br>Intense ultraviolet light was often given off by the forming stars. <br> [[Category:NebulaeCartography]][[category: science]]
