Aargonar 3


Aargonar 3, situated in the Mid Rim, existed as a moon. During the Clone Wars, specifically in 21 BBY, it was a highly contested territory. Similar to the planet it circled, it also served as a habitat for multiple sarlaccs.

History

Later on, Aargonar 3 became the site of a Rebel base. The Empire eradicated this base around the time of the Battle of Yavin, during the Battle of Aargonar. Individuals such as Commander Hamelin and Gruu Dunrik were among the Rebel personnel stationed there. Cala Worner, who worked as a Rebel recruiter, also made a visit to this base. The base's location was close to the Pit, which housed the moon's most famous sarlacc. Although most people thought that this was the only sarlacc present on the moon, there were actually several others that lived in more remote locations.
