Baltizaar was an astronomical entity that served as a point of connection for a hyperspace route. In the year 3 BBY, Princess Leia Organa journeyed from Coruscant, a planet located in the Core Worlds, to the planet Paucris Major with the purpose of warning a developing rebel fleet situated in the Paucris system about an impending Imperial assault. After delivering her warning, Organa made the decision to chart a hyperspace course that would lead to Baltizaar, intending to return to Coruscant from that location. Amilyn Holdo, her traveling companion, concurred with the proposed detour, suggesting that altering their course would complicate the Empire's ability to trace their movements. However, before their departure to Baltizaar could occur, Organa discovered that Kier Domadi, a fellow Apprentice Legislator, had followed her to the Paucris system aboard a cutter, and she proceeded to establish contact with his ship.
Within the current Star Wars canon, the reference to Baltizaar appears in Leia, Princess of Alderaan, a young-adult novel from 2017 authored by Claudia Gray. In the Star Wars Legends timeline, the planet named Baltizaar was initially mentioned in the Power of the Jedi Sourcebook, a sourcebook for the 2002 Star Wars Roleplaying Game by Wizards of the Coast.
