Kuna's Eye system


Description


The Kuna's Eye system was located in the Outer Rim Territories, west of the region known as the Western Reaches and southeast of Wild Space. The system was located within the Inner Zuma Region of the Zuma sector, inside the Moddell subsector. Its distance from the horizontal galactic plane was less than 1,000 light-years, which placed it within the thin disk, a tract of space whose vertical distance from the plane was no more than 1,000 light-years.

The system's primary star was Kuna's Eye, a blue giant that, along with the other Kuna worlds, formed part of the Kuna constellation visible from the planet Maya Kovel.

History


Members of two sentient species, the Tulgah and the Jindas, attempted to colonize the system from the factory world Eriadu circa 130 BBY, but their starship, the Free Enterprise, crashed on the forested moon Endor instead.

The sun of the system, Kuna's Eye, was considered to be young as of 43 ABY and was orbited by a protoplanetary disk of dust and rock that was rich in minerals, metals, and alloys. At the edge of the disk was the Mote, a cobbled-together space station and shadowport dedicated to fulfilling the needs of the prospectors that were attracted to the system. The station hosted 1,000 individuals of various species.

Behind the scenes


The first mention of the Kuna's Eye system was in the article "Endor and the Moddell Sector"—written by Craig Robert Carey, Daniel Wallace, and Jason Fry—in Star Wars Gamer 9, released on February 22, 2002. The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the system in grid square H-16.
