Starkiller Base system

Canon Linked from 71 articles

Starkiller Base system was a star system that, during the conflict between the First Order and the Resistance, the First Order moved the mobilized planet Ilum to in the Unknown Regions in order to use its star as a power source. The planet's superweapon directed the star's power into a thermal oscillator as a way of collecting the dark energy it needed to function, dimming the star's light until it was snuffed out completely. However, the destruction of Starkiller Base allowed the star's energy to expand, forming a new star in the planet's place causing it to becoming a binary star system.
