A moon with a stormy atmosphere and seas on its surface[3] was one of the eighteen natural satellites that orbited the gas giant–type planet of Kiskua. That world was located within the Y'Toub system[2] of the galaxy's Hutt Space region[1] and lay on the junction of four hyperlanes called the Oktos Route, the Ootmian Pabol, the Pabol Hutta, and the Shag Pabol.[2] The stormy moon was devoid of any life forms until some point[3] by 3643 BBY,[4] when microbial life was discovered in the satellite's seas.[3]
An individual who visited the moon at that time in order to observe the process of biogenesis cautiously obtained a sample of the microbes and brought it back to a partner.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
Kiskua's moon was first mentioned in a Bionanalysis Crew Skill mission of Star Wars: The Old Republic, a video game developed by BioWare and released in 2011, though the information regarding the mission's outcome was later removed from the game.[3] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Y'Toub system, and therefore Kiskua and its moon, in grid square S-12.[2]

Star Wars: The Old Republic — Bioanalysis Crew Skill mission: "Biogenesis"
- ↑ 4.0 4.1 4.2 Per the reasoning here, Act I of Star Wars: The Old Republic takes place around 3643 BBY. Since players of The Old Republic can assign their companions on the mission "Biogenesis" independently of the main class storyline at any point during the game, the mission must take place at some point by 3643 BBY.
