Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.
Churba was the cosmopolitan sector capital of the Churba sector, known for its cutting-edge technology. It was headquarters of Sencil Corporation.
Within the first 20 years of the Galactic Empire, an old dreadnaught was left in the planet's orbit serving as a museum until, sometime prior to 1 BBY, the Rebel Alliance sent deep-space tugs that stole the ship from orbit and transferred to a secret location; it was repurposed and renamed the New Hope as a move of psychological warfare.
The Imperial Intelligence agent Kirtan Loor and Rogue Squadron pilot Dar Keyis were from the planet.
Tetengo Noor, a Human male in the New Republic military, was also from Churba.
