Comm Datacore The Comm Datacore was owned and utilized by the Azzameen family to send and receive all communications through the family ' s holdings . Originally , the datacore was installed within the family ' s space facility , Azzameen Station . However , after the Galactic Empire witnessed the Azzameen family ' s involvement with the Rebel Alliance , the Imperials declared the Azzameens traitors and moved to nationalize all Azzameen property . Once the Empire drove the Azzameens from their orbital home , Azzameen Station was stripped of most of its installed equipment . The Comm Datacore was sent to an Imperial scrapyard near Tolig IV , where it was stored in a cargo container . Later , Emon Azzameen and his younger brother , Ace , conducted a mission to recover the datacore in order to verify their suspicions that someone among their employ was leaking information to the Azzameens ' enemies . Amidst the resulting battle at the scrapyard between the Azzameen brothers and a group of raiders , family droid MK - 09 retrieved the cargo container holding the Comm Datacore . Emon then gave the recovered data to his sister , Aeron , who in turn sliced through the logs to find any relevant communications . Description . The Comm Datacore was a communications datacore that was originally installed in Azzameen Station . The datacore was responsible for facilitating and logging communications through the orbital installation owned and operated by the Azzameen family . Family technician Aeron Azzameen presumed that the datacore also monitored transmissions sent without the Azzameens ' knowledge , such as those possibly made by rogue agents under Azzameen employ who were working against the family and its trading company , Twin Suns Transport Services . The Comm Datacore stored records of both inbound and outbound communications , which could be preserved , accessed , and downloaded even if the core was removed from the station . The datacore was small enough to fit inside a seven - meter - long Class - K cargo container . History . At some point by 3 ABY , the Comm Database was installed in Azzameen Station , home of the Azzameen family , located in the Garis sector of the Outer Rim Territories . The Azzameens used the datacore to monitor and log communications through the facility . Shortly after the Battle of Hoth during the Galactic Civil War , Imperial forces discovered that members of the Azzameen family had been aiding the Rebel Alliance . The Empire responded by issuing arrest warrants for the Azzameens and moving to seize all Azzameen property . Following a series of skirmishes between the Empire and the Azzameen family , Azzameen Station fell to Imperial control , and the Azzameens were driven to seek refuge with the Alliance Fleet . Azzameen Station was stripped of much of its internal equipment , including the Comm Datacore . The datacore was eventually delivered to Junkyard Control , an Imperial scrapyard located near the planet Tolig IV , where it was stored in a Class - K cargo container . After several encounters with interlopers meddling in the Azzameens ' attempts to restore their dissolved company , Aeron Azzameen began to research the Comm Datacore ' s location , as she figured that the datacore could be sliced to reveal a rogue agent within the Azzameens who was leaking information regarding the family ' s affairs . Her sources soon led her to Junkyard Control . With the apparent location of the Comm Datacore found , Aeron called upon her brothers , Emon and Rebellion pilot Ace , as well as family droid MK - 09 , to investigate the scrapyard and retrieve the logs stored within the datacore . After finding their property among the scrapyard ' s containers and a brief skirmish with a raiding party seeking to disrupt the Azzameen effort , MK - 09 downloaded the datacore ' s information , which remained undamaged throughout the battle . Emon then collected the data and delivered it to Aeron . Behind the scenes . The Comm Datacore appeared in the 1999 video game " " . Later missions reveal that Antan Azzameen — co - owner of Twin Suns Transport Services and uncle to Aeron , Emon , and Ace — was the mole within the family , acting with the Imperials in order to restore the family business . However , neither the game nor its accompanying Prima Games elaborate upon the Comm Datacore ' s role in this discovery . In the game ' s mission to recover the datacore , the destruction of the K - class container — and , thus , the datacore inside — causes an immediate failure , as does the destruction of MK - 09 before , during , and after the information transfer .
