Elin Roe's fifth moon

Elin Roe's fifth moon was a natural satellite located in the Colonies. It was the fifth moon orbiting the celestial body Elin Roe of the Elin Roe system. At some point by the time shortly after the Battle of Yavin, the Yagaran Four bounty hunter team pursued on Elin Roe a target on which a bounty had been posted. During the chase, the team activated the hyperdrive of their YT-1300 light freighter. However, the drive unit, which had previously been subjected to a dangerous modification by the mechanic known as "Maniac," exploded, killing the Yagaran Four and emitting a cloud of radioactive dust that washed over the fifth moon of Elin Roe. Maniac was subsequently credited with the minor-scale disaster.
