The Bubblet Nebula is an absorption nebula that appears in the Celestial Lance Universe. It is almost directly opposite the Sol system on the galactic plane, about two-thirds along the Centaurus Arm of the Milky Way. It is about 300 light years above the galactic plane, at the end of the Centaurus-Grouper spur. It is about 69,000 light years from Sol in normal space, directly through the galactic core. To avoid the galactic core, travel through normal space would be about 76,000 light years.
From the direction it was originally discovered, it appears to be a collection of dark bubble-like shapes similar to thick soap bubbles.
