The Mission to Prefsbelt IV took place when the Rebel pilot Wedge Antilles, coordinated by General Madine, attempted to reclaim the Imperial shuttle Tydirium. Antilles infiltrated the Academy through the southern mountain pass and avoided detection by the Sensor Outposts. He then docked with the shuttle and took off toward the rendezvous point. After his escort arrived, he escaped.
