Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The Destruction of Aeten II took place in 3 ABY, shortly following the Battle of Hoth. Imperial Grand Admiral Martio Batch used the superlaser of the Empire's still-under-construction Tarkin superweapon to shatter the planet of Aeten II, releasing million's of the planet's stygium crystals into free-floating space, which Batch used to recreate the stygium screen cloaking device, technology that had all been lost to the galaxy.
