Helva was a planet located in the galaxy's Alpha or Beta Quadrants. It was the homeworld of the developing Helvan civilization.

History and specifics[]

Helva orbited a binary star system and had a breathable atmosphere. Terrain included mountains, canyons, volcanos, and thousand-foot tall mirrorred, crystal cliffs. Lifeforms included silver and black-colored trees. Its gravity felt heavy to humans.

It's inhabitants were at a feudal stage of development, not far ahead of the Stone Age technologically, but in the late 23rd century had jumped two levels on the Richter Scale of Culture in two years. Their capital city was located near a lone mountain.

The Federation starship USS Enterprise investigated waves of violence on Helva in 2274, finding them to be part of a larger, cosmic experiment by an interfering, advanced species known as Designers. These aliens set up an installation not far from the capital city in a cavern under a force field-defended canyon. The outpost's interior might be in an alternate reality or another dimension. (TOS novel: The Prometheus Design)
