Haroon was the sole moon of the Imperial penal world Despayre, located in the Horuz system of the Outer Rim's Atrivis sector. The crystalline surface of the moon was exploited by the Galactic Empire after the relocation of their partially-constructed Death Star superweapon in orbit of Despayre. A small mining operation was set up on Haroon, where very large, specially cut crystals were extracted for use in the construction of the Death Star. Near its completion in 0 BBY, the Death Star destroyed Despayre in a three wave test fire of its superlaser, reducing the planet to a debris field, which presumably consumed Haroon in the process.
