Starveil Project

The Starveil Project was a project that was undertaken by the Galactic Republic in 4,067 BBY, to search the Luire system.

The project
Officially the aim of the project was to explore and to search for alien species. However, in reality, the project was put together to search for an experimental Republic Navy vessel that had gone missing near to the Luire system. To carry out the project, Commander Bethanie Melan of the Republic Navy was assigned to command the Starveil, a civilian exploration ship, and then use it to scan the Luire system for any sign of the missing vessel. However, while undertaking the mission, the Starveil crash-landed onto Nyriaan, the fifth planet in the system.
