Mission to Blenjeel

In 14 ABY, a merchant vessel crashed on Blenjeel, and Jedi apprentice Jaden Korr was sent to rescue its crew. However, due to atmospheric lightning, he too crashlanded on the planet, his ship serverely damaged. Just as Korr left his space ship to investigate the environment, we witnessed the last surviving merchant getting devoured by an enormous sandworm.

Stranded on a planet full of dangerous sandworms was not Korr's cup of hot chocolate, so Korr desided to scavenge the wreck of the crashed merchant ship to see if he could retrieve any parts that he could use to repair his own ship with. Korr was able to avoid the native sandworms for long enough to find the parts necessary to repair his ship.

The sandworms instinctively attacked any source of vibrations in the sand. And so, Korr may event have killed some of the worms by tricking them into eating thermal detonators by simply throwing a detonator in the sand. This would produce enough vibrations in the sand for the sandworm to mistake it for an organinc entity and swallow it.

Korr managed to repair the ship and depart from the planet. Shortly after this, it was listed in Galactic databases as a dangerous planet to be avoided.
