Hubin

Hubin was a moon in the Dene Gois Cluster within the Outer Rim Territories, and the residence of the isolationist Clan Markona and their leader, Thane Markona. To avoid the Galactic Empire while passing through the Dene Gois Cluster, Leia Organa, Luke Skywalker, and Han Solo had to land on Hubin in an escape pod. After they landed, they met Thane Markona, who allowed them to stay in his mansion. About a month later, the Empire learned of the rebel presence on Hubin, sending SCAR Squadron to capture them. Markona, having decided to join the Rebellion, organized the evacuation of his clan, who stole the squadron's shuttle to escape. Markona himself was killed by Sergeant Kreel, who was left stranded on the moon with the rest of SCAR Squadron. The squadron was able to create a transmitter, warning the Empire of the rebels' next mission.
