Overview

Located in the outward Nuiri Sector, Resh was given the misleading definition of a system although there is actually only a comet present in the galactic quadrant[1]. The celestial body follows an elliptical path that approaches many inhabited star systems without passing through them.

The comet was initially discovered by an automated Corellian probe over 200 years ago, but after being classified as an "astronavigation hazard" it was soon forgotten.[2] Thanks to the recent improvement of the star-charting technology and the creation of more hyperspace routes, a renowned interest in space discovery aroused, not only in the scientific community but also among navigators, historians, adventurers, and seasoned pilots.[2]

The Resh 9376 comet was discovered again by a Kiffar exploration team on Year 13 Day 63.[2] The navigators found out a small community dwelling in the hollow part of the comet. When questioned about their origins, the dwellers claimed they were the descendants of Salovan Fische, a Corellian pirate who discovered this comet and used it as a base of operations for his raids.[2] Fische's crew spent over a decade digging tunnels and underground chambers to accomodate a small but self-sufficient community. Eventually, however, Fische reportedly spent more time on decorating and embellishing the hideout to a degree where it became a true obsession on his part, losing any interest on pirate raids. For this reason, Fische's crew eventually mutinied and left him and his remaining loyalists in this pirate hideout.[2]

Currently the community is still isolated and willing to remain so. Xenobiologists and anthropologists are indeed curious to study this community and search for possible hereditary diseases or chromosomic patterns, and the regulating social dynamics that have allowed such a long survival in poor conditions.[2]

The re-discovery of Resh led to a new wave of exploration and many other discoveries followed, the first one being the Hook Nebula system.
