Backup Rendezvous Point Gamma-Nine

Backup Rendezvous Point Gamma-Nine was a location in space used for the regrouping of the scattered Alliance to Restore the Republic forces during the Galactic Civil War in 3 ABY following the Galactic Empire's devastating attack on Echo Base, the Rebellion's base of operations constructed on the planet Hoth.

After the Millennium Falcon escape from Cloud City, the starship joined the Alliance's Fourth Division, which gathered at the rendezvous point after being nearly destroyed by an Imperial attack at Rendezvous Point Delta-Three. At the time, Lando Calrissian speculated that they could be what remained of the Alliance Fleet. Afterwards, Luke Skywalker had his lost hand replaced by a robotic one on the EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigate Redemption at the rendezvous point.

Gathered at the rendezvous point were several T-65B X-wing starfighters, BTL Y-wing starfighters, and GR-75 medium transports, alongside two EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigates, including the Redemption, the Millennium Falcon, as well as at least three CR90 corvettes. Several other starships were also present.
