Big One

Canon Legends version → Linked from 6 articles

The Big One was the accretion shell of the exogorth Sy-O, which was mistaken for an asteroid located in the Hoth asteroid belt, itself a gathering of exogorths in a Clew. Following the Battle of Hoth, Han Solo flew the Millennium Falcon into a large crater within the asteroid in order to hide from Imperial pursuers, unaware that the "crater" he had flown into was actually Sy-O's gullet.
