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

The Cosmic Turbine was an immense device capable of manipulating gravity on a large scale. Part of a set of massive machines located in the Vultar system, it was created by the ancient Celestial species. When a group of Dark Jedi took up residence in the Vultar system in 4250 BBY, they attempted to use the Cosmic Turbine and other devices against their enemy, the Jedi Order. However, a catastrophic accident after the technology's activation destroyed the entire Vultar system, including the Dark Jedi and the Celestial machinery. Tens of millennia later, the Cosmic Turbine was discussed by the Obroan Institute for Archaeology researcher Doctor Insmot Bowen when the Galactic Empire debriefed them on the Celestials.
