Vandrayk Scale

The Vandrayk Scale was a measurement that related to the likelihood for an asteroid to house the exogorth species. A majority of the asteroids of the Anoat asteroid belt in the Outer Rim were poor candidates on the Vandrayk Scale, though exogorths nonetheless inhabited the asteroid field. When the Galactic Empire attempted to locate the Rebel Alliance vessel Millennium Falcon in the asteroid field following the Battle of Hoth in 3 ABY, Commodore Rae Sloane determined that the Falcon had been hidden inside an exogorth by discovering the bodies of mynocks, creatures that could be found in exogorths' mouths. Admiral Firmus Piett doubted the possibility, and Sloane agreed that it would seem unlikely, citing the Vandrayk Scale.
