Notes
The Shivan Nebula, known in-game as The Mysterious Nebula Beyond Gamma Draconis, or simply The Nebula, is, like most nebulae, the remnant of an ancient supernova. It was connected to Gamma Draconis via a Knossos device (on the Gamma Draconis side) and to the Binary System via another Knossos portal.
The nebula may have been created by a Shivan-induced supernova, such as the one that occured Capella, during the Shivan conquest of the Ancients.
