Therma-bonder

Therma–bonders were devices used to attach cargo pods to starships. Once the bonders had finished installing a pod they would produce a hissing sound. Therma–bonders were used to attach a sealed cargo pod to Starlady, a Z-10 Seeker scout vessel owned by Debret Nightmoon, after the pilot was hired to deliver the pod by a crime lord named Jarafok, who sent the Quarren Nopan to deliver it.
