Heglum was a very light, synthetic gas used in dirigibles. Sometimes found inside of nebulae, it quickly bonded to a starship's sublight drives. Ships passing through heglum clouds need to undergo regular drive scrubbing in order to remain at optimal performance.

The Kathol Rift was thick with both heglum and iridium.^[1]
