During the Galactic Civil War, Princess Leia crash-landed on Nibiru, which prompted the mission to Nibiru.
Nibiru shares its name with a real-life hoax involving a supposed planetary object known as "Nibiru," or "Planet X," which was speculated by some groups to collide with Earth in an apocalyptic cataclysm. The name Nibiru itself comes from Babylonian astronomy where it is the star of Marduk often identified with Jupiter.
