Paulson Nebula

The Paulson Nebula was a body of interstellar gas located within Federation space near the borders of the Romulan Star Empire and Klingon Empire.

In 2339, the Romulan warbird IRW Kimara became stranded near the Paulson Nebula when its crew succumbed to radiation poisoning.

''In 2366 of an alternate timeline, the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) hid in the Paulson Nebula after being pursued by a Borg cube. Eventually, the cube forced the Enterprise out of the nebula using magnetometric guided charges before continuing onto Earth in a failed attempt to assimilate the planet.
