The Mission to Myrkr, also known as the Mission, was an operation conducted by the New Jedi Order in 27 ABY with the purpose of destroying the Jedi-hunting voxyn creatures. A strike team of seventeen Jedi Knights, led by Anakin Solo, infiltrated the worldship Baanu Rass above the planet Myrkr and eliminated the voxyn queen, though six Jedi—Anakin among them—lost their lives in the process and Jacen Solo was captured.
