Koornacht Cluster
From TheHolo.Net Forums Wiki
The Koornacht Cluster was an area of immense gas and nebulae at the center of the galaxy, located in Farlax sector at the very edge of the Deep Core.
Description
Approximately 2,000 star systems made up the cluster, which was named after Aitro Koornacht, a palace guard on Tamban who befriended the astronomer that first discovered it. Despite this high concentration of star systems, only a hundred or so planets bore life and only six produced sentient lifeforms. It was believed that seventeen planets outside the Duskhan League had lifeforms of some kind, but it was difficult to survey or contact them.
The Widek Bypass detoured around the cluster and the Metellos Trade Route terminated at it.
The Koornacht Cluster was known by the Fia as "The Great Multitude of the Circle of the Heavens" or simply "The Multitude"<ref name="BTS" />, by the Wehttam as "God's Temple", by the Ka'aa as "No'aat Padu'll" or "The Little Nursery", and a number of other names.
History
The cluster was Imperial territory from the end of the Clone Wars until soon after the Battle of Endor, when the Duskhan League wrestled it from the control of the retreating Black Sword Command. This cluster provided the backdrop for the Black Fleet Crisis.
While traveling in the Cluster, Obi-Wan Kenobi once encountered a bounty hunter using a lightwhip.
