Comet

Comets were giant ice formations floating through space.

Eons before the Battle of Endor, a comet named Kinro was predicted to destroy several Core planets. The comet was destroyed before it reached the Mid Rim, and its destruction was attributed to the Jedi Order.

During the Clone Wars, Colonel Meebur Gascon and D-Squad encountered a comet storm near the planet Abafar.

A cometary cloud was located in the Ilum system.

A class of mining ships that mined comets for thorilide were called Comet Chasers. A fleet of them returned to the Calcoraan Depot in 11 ABY after exhausting a fresh supply of thorilide bearing comets.
