Operation New Eclipse was the name of a Republic Navy operation undertaken in order to eliminate a minefield blockade of the Impossible Sector during the Galactic War with the Sith Empire. The Coruscant Aegis squadron was dispatched to the Unknown Regions to destroy the Mandalorians who were maintaining the blockade and preventing Republic-allied smugglers from delivering vital supplies to the Republic.
