A Galaxy Far, Far Away → [89/∞] Crait

An
Outer Rim planet hidden by its sheer distance from any common hyperlanes, Crait once boasted varied flora, fauna, and a thriving mining community – but the minerals that made up Crait’s crust salinized and began to desiccate the planet from the inside out. Despite this, Bail Organa and the a fledgling group of rebels had a temporary base and armament on Crait in 3 BBY. By the time of the Rebel Alliance, all that remained were marooned miners’ bones, carnivorous dune-worms, and vulptices; in c.1 ABY, Leia Organa, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Luke Skywalker, and Wedge Antilles led an exploratory mission under the name SCAR Squadron on Crait and were ambushed by stormtroopers.

Thirty-three years later, the last survivors of the Resistance barricaded themselves in the old Rebel hideout and escaped total annihilation by the First Order by following the vulptices to the surface.

Luke Skywalker’s final battle was fought in absentia on Crait.
