The Secret Research Facillity was a site belonging to the Confederacy of Independent Systems, situated on an unmapped moon that had not been recorded. Within this research center were kept the schematics for the First Death Star, as part of Project Stardust.
During the Clone Wars period, specifically from 22 BBY to 20 BBY, Jedi General Aayla Secura embarked on a mission to this location, seeking to uncover a rumored secret hidden there. However, she encountered Asajj Ventress, a Dark Acolyte and assassin, who prevented her progress. As they battled, a support beam spanning the facility became too hot, resulting in the building's collapse. Secura restrained the falling rubble and instructed the numerous Geonosians present at the facility to flee through its network of tunnels.
