No, the nebulae is freezing cold, temperatures have reached as low as 200 Kelvin. (-99.67 Fahrenheit)

The helium freezes into rocks. (Helium is an element on the Periodic Table, and therefore can be considered a MINERAL when it is solidified in pure/consistently composed form.

Our low power laser devices (mining lasers) melt the minerals, and our tractor beams are specially designed to filter the gas out of the air, and then it is Flash-Frozen into one HUGE chunk to be moved into the hauler cargo pods.

they then take it to Philadelphia Station and thaw it and huck it into the Fusion Heat-Forge, which keeps the station running at survivable temperatures.

(Pennsylvania isn't known for having a sun warm enough to heat Places that far away)

Its also the sun's fault that we can't get Hydrogen to fuse into Helium instead (would be easier, more cost effective, and generate more heat)
Less compression needed to mash Hydrogens together... but the sun already did all that work.

However...
Philadelphia Station is good at making Beryllium (All those Helium atoms being mashed together, creating atoms with 4 Protons)

Which can be used for light construction frames or something...
