Unrefined coaxium, once mined, would gradually begin to destabilize and turn red in color before exploding violently if not stored properly in a temperature controlled environment. [[Bis Refinery|One]] such coaxium refinery existed on the [[desert]] [[planet]] of [[Savareen]].<ref name="Solo" /> The [[hyperdrive]] reaction chamber of a starship was coated in coaxium, which, when energized, allowed the ship to travel through hyperspace.<ref name="Databank" /> Coaxium, when used as a fuel, was so potent at energy generation that just a small amount of it was sufficient to power an entire fleet of ships. This made it extremely valuable and it was therefore highly sought after by many. The [[Galactic Empire]] transported large shipments of coaxium under high-security measurements, with the intent of gaining complete control over the production of the substance. Because of the knowledge about [[purrgil]]s and the gas [[Clouzon-36]], scientists discovered that coaxium naturally forms itself in places with strong interstellar energy like Kessel.<ref name="OfficialGuide">''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story The Official Guide]]''</ref> ==History== By the age of the [[Galactic Empire]], coaxium was a highly valuable substance sought after by the Empire as well as various criminal organizations; the [[White Worms]], the [[Pyke Syndicate]], and [[Crimson Dawn]] among them.<ref name="Solo" /> [[13 BBY|Thirteen years]] prior to the [[Battle of Yavin]], a young [[Han Solo|Han]] acquired a small amount of coaxium, and he and his childhood friend [[Qi'ra]] attempted to use it to barter their way off of [[Corellia]]. He partially failed, only managing to secure his own escape, while Qi'ra was detained at the spaceport.<ref name="Solo" /> Three years later, Solo became embroiled in a [[Heist on Vandor|plot]] to steal a shipment of the precious fuel from a [[20-T Railcrawler conveyex transport]] on [[Vandor]] for [[Dryden Vos]] and [[Crimson Dawn]]. Due to the interference of [[Enfys Nest]] and her [[Cloud-Riders]], Solo chose to release the tethers holding the coaxium rather than follow [[Tobias Beckett]]'s orders to fly straight towards a mountainside. The Cloud-Riders' swoops were unable to hold up the heavy container on their own and were forced to drop it, causing a massive explosion that collapsed the mountainside.<ref name="Solo" /> Finally, Solo, together with Qi'ra, [[Lando Calrissian]], the [[Wookiee]] [[Chewbacca]], and [[L3-37]] made the [[Kessel Run]] to [[Raid on Kessel|obtain]] unrefined coaxium from the Pykes and bring it back to Vos in repayment for their past failures. This time, Solo succeeded, bringing the shipment to [[Savareen]] to be refined. He and his associates were soon [[Skirmish on Savareen|confronted]] by the Cloud-Riders, who revealed Crimson Dawn's intention to use the coaxium to spread death across the galaxy.<ref name="Solo" /> [[File:Dryden and Han.jpg|thumb|right|332x332px|Dryden Vos accuses Han Solo of giving him fake coaxium.]] Deciding to doublecross Crimson Dawn, Solo fed false information to Beckett, knowing he would sell him out to Vos, that he would be bringing two crates full of counterfeit coaxium, when in fact he was bringing the real shipment. Both Beckett and Vos were fooled by his ruse as the Crimson Dawn enforcers attempted to ambush the Cloud-Riders only to be fooled by decoys and empty crates before they were dispatched. Beckett soon took Chewbacca hostage and held him at blasterpoint to carry the coaxium off Vos's yacht, but Solo soon caught up to him and killed Beckett. Afterwards, he gave the coaxium to the Cloud-Riders to fund their growing rebellion. After declining Enfys's offer for Solo to join them, she provided him a single vial of coaxium, which he used in a [[sabacc]] game against Calrissian in which he won ownership of the ''[[Millennium Falcon]]''.<ref name="Solo" /> Sometime after the [[Battle of Yavin]], the [[MC80 Star Cruiser]] ''[[Aurora Flare]]'' was carrying a large amount of coaxium from the [[Redhurne system]]. Upon hearing the news of [[King of Mon Cala|king]] [[Lee-Char]]'s murder, the ''Aurora Flare'' [[Mutiny on Mon Cala|crashed]] into an [[Imperial-class Star Destroyer|''Imperial''-class Star Destroyer]], creating an opening for many other Mon Calamari cruisers to flee to the rebel-controlled [[Mako-Ta Space Docks]].<ref name="SW49" /> After the [[Evacuation of D'Qar]], [[Kazuda Xiono]] led the pirates to [[Mission to obtain coaxium|raid]] the remains of the ''[[Fulminatrix]]'' to retrieve its coaxium for the ''[[Colossus]]''.<ref name="A Quick Salvage Run">{{Resistance|A Quick Salvage Run}}</ref> ==Appearances== {{Scroll box| *''[[Dooku: Jedi Lost]]'' {{Mo}} *''[[Star Wars Battlefront II]]'' {{C|DLC}} *''[[Age of Rebellion - Darth Vader 1]]'' {{Mo}} *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story]]'' *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story: Expanded Edition]]'' *[[Solo: A Star Wars Story: Expanded Edition (audiobook)|''Solo: A Star Wars Story: Expanded Edition'' audiobook]] *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story: A Junior Novel]]'' *[[Solo: A Star Wars Story: A Junior Novel (audiobook)|''Solo: A Star Wars Story: A Junior Novel'' audiobook]] *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story Read-Along Storybook and CD]]'' *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story: Train Heist]]'' *''[[Star Wars: Solo Graphic Novel Adaptation]]'' *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story Adaptation 1]]'' *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story Adaptation 2]]'' *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story Adaptation 3]]'' {{Mo}} *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story Adaptation 4]]'' {{Mo}} *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story Adaptation 5]]'' *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story Adaptation 6]]'' *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story Adaptation 7]]'' *''[[Han Solo - Imperial Cadet 1]]'' *''[[Choose Your Destiny: A Han & Chewie Adventure]]'' {{1stm}} *{{Galaxy of Adventures|Han Solo - Galaxy's Best Smuggler}} {{Flash}} *''[[Star Wars 49]]'' *''[[Star Wars: Commander]]'' {{1st}} *[[Alphabet Squadron (novel)|''Alphabet Squadron'']] {{Mo}} *[[Alphabet Squadron (audiobook)|''Alphabet Squadron'' audiobook]] {{Mo}} *{{Resistance|Fuel for the Fire}} *{{Resistance|The Platform Classic}} {{Mo}} *{{Resistance|Into the Unknown}} {{Mo}} *{{Resistance|A Quick Salvage Run}} *{{IDWAdventuresCite|17|[[Flight of the Falcon, Part 4: Lady and the Tramp]]}} {{Mo}} {{Flash}} *{{GEAttr|Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run}}}} ==Sources== {{Scroll box| *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story The Official Guide]]'' *''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story: Tales from Vandor]]'' *''[[Star Wars: The Complete Visual Dictionary, New Edition]]'' *''[[Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious]]'' *''[[Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide]]'' *''[[Star Wars: Outer Rim]]'' *{{FFGXW2|Fireball Expansion Pack|cardname=Coaxium Hyperfuel}} *{{FFGXW2|Hotshots and Aces Reinforcements Pack|cardname=Coaxium Hyperfuel}} *{{Databank|chewbacca|Chewbacca|archivedate=20170806120222}} *{{Databank|coaxium|Coaxium|archivedate=20180531165111}} *{{Databank|galaxys-glory|Galaxy's Glory}} *{{Databank|imperial-conveyex-transport|Imperial Conveyex transport|archivedate=20180416230045}} *{{Databank|kessel|Kessel}} *{{Databank|millennium-falcon|Millennium Falcon|archivedate=20170724101607}} *{{Databank|officer-sharest|Officer Sharest|archivedate=20180629015134}} *{{Databank|pyke-syndicate|Pyke Syndicate}} *{{Databank|savareen-refinery|Savareen refinery}} *{{Databank|tobias-beckett|Tobias Beckett|archivedate=20180416223833}} *{{Databank|val|Val|archivedate=20180416224213}}}} ==Notes and references== {{Reflist}} {{Interlang |cs=Coaxium |de=Coaxium#kanon |es=Coaxium |fr=Coaxium |hu=Koaxium |ja=コアクシウム |pl=Coaxium |ru=Коаксий }} [[Category:Fuels]] Loading editor Standard preloads (select a template to preload its contents): Custom preload pagename: Insert: – — … ° ≈ ≠ ± − × ÷ ← → · § Sign your username: ~~~~ Wiki markup: {{}} | [] [[]] [[Category:]] #REDIRECT [[]] <s></s> <sup></sup> <sub></sub> <code></code> <blockquote></blockquote> <ref></ref> <references/> <includeonly></includeonly> <noinclude></noinclude> <nowiki></nowiki> Symbols: ~ | ¡ ¿ † ‡ ↔ ↑ ↓ • ¶ # ¹ ² ³ ½ ⅓ ⅔ ¼ ¾ ⅛ ⅜ ⅝ ⅞ Characters: Á á Ć ć É é Í í Ĺ ĺ Ń ń Ó ó Ŕ ŕ Ś ś Ú ú Ý ý Ź ź À à È è Ì ì Ò ò Ù ù  â Ĉ ĉ Ê ê Ĝ ĝ Ĥ ĥ Î î Ĵ ĵ Ô ô Ŝ ŝ Û û Ŵ ŵ Ŷ ŷ Ä ä Ë ë Ï ï Ö ö Ü ü Ÿ ÿ ß Ã ã Ẽ ẽ Ĩ ĩ Ñ ñ Õ õ Ũ ũ Ỹ ỹ Ç ç Ģ ģ Ķ ķ Ļ ļ Ņ ņ Ŗ ŗ Ş ş Ţ ţ Đ đ Ů ů Ǎ ǎ Č č Ď ď Ě ě Ǐ ǐ Ľ ľ Ň ň Ǒ ǒ Ř ř Š š Ť ť Ǔ ǔ Ž ž Ā ā Ē ē Ī ī Ō ō Ū ū Ȳ ȳ Ǣ ǣ ǖ ǘ ǚ ǜ Ă ă Ĕ ĕ Ğ ğ Ĭ ĭ Ŏ ŏ Ŭ ŭ Ċ ċ Ė ė Ġ ġ İ ı Ż ż Ą ą Ę ę Į į Ǫ ǫ Ų ų Ḍ ḍ Ḥ ḥ Ḷ ḷ Ḹ ḹ Ṃ ṃ Ṇ ṇ Ṛ ṛ Ṝ ṝ Ṣ ṣ Ṭ ṭ Ł ł Ő ő Ű ű Ŀ ŀ Ħ ħ Ð ð Þ þ Œ œ Æ æ Ø ø Å å Ə ə Greek: Ά ά Έ έ Ή ή Ί ί Ό ό Ύ ύ Ώ ώ Α α Β β Γ γ Δ δ Ε ε Ζ ζ Η η Θ θ Ι ι Κ κ Λ λ Μ μ Ν ν Ξ ξ Ο ο Π π Ρ ρ Σ σ ς Τ τ Υ υ Φ φ Χ χ Ψ ψ Ω ω Please note: No personal information from you is required to edit on Wookieepedia.
