The Gymelo system was located within the Bakura sector of the Outer Rim Territories and also Wild Space. It was the location of the astronomical object Gymelo. The Human named Bix Arden-Govia departed his homeworld, the nearby planet called Bakura, as a young man, becoming a ship's boy on a freighter that originated from Gymelo; he later returned from his voyages circa 4 ABY.
The system of Gymelo initially appeared in the reference work The Essential Atlas, published in 2009 by Daniel Wallace and [Jason Fry], and was situated in grid coordinate G-16.
