Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Desolation Station was an asteroid-based Imperial facility that was used to assemble and transport superlaser components to the first Death Star battle station. Commanded by an Imperial captain and overseen by the Force-sensitive clone X1, the facility became the target of a Rebel Alliance raid at some point between 2 BBY and 0 BBY. Alliance agent X2, assisted by a small group of Rebels, infiltrated the facility, rescued Wookiee prisoners being held there, and deactivated the shield corridor protecting a transport carrying the last of the superlaser components, the tributary beam. After securing the transport itself, X2 used the tributary beam to destroy Desolation Station.
