- "Orron III. That's mostly an agricultural world, except that the Authority has a data center there."
- ―Jessa Vandangante
Orron III was an agricultural world located in the Orron system, in the Corporate Sector. An Authority Data Center was located there[2] . Incoming traffic was restricted to drone barges for transporting crops and Authority fleet vessels. Orron III had three moons.
History[]
On their attempt to rescue Klaus Vandangante from Stars' End, Han Solo and Chewbacca, after hiding the Millennium Falcon onboard a food barge they made an attempt to infiltrate an Authority Data Center on Orron III to get the prison's coordinates. Then Han and Chewbacca met up with a group led by Rekkon seeking to free family members from the prison. The attempt went badly and resulted in Chewbacca being captured and sent to the Corporate Sector Authority's prison.[3]
Near the completion of the first Death Star, when the Alliance captured Toral, Intelligence examined documents found in its memory and discovered that a weapon convoy was to be found near the planet. The Tone, Uhuru and Hyko was gathered there when the forces showed up; the convoy was destroyed by Y-wings from Red Squadron and Gold Squadron and X-wings from the Blue Squadron. Communications Satellites were stolen by the BFF-1 bulk freighter Phoenix from that base.[4]
