BioCruiser The BioCruiser was a massive , nomadic ship owned by Offworld Mining Corporation ( UniFy ) and commandeered by the philosophical leader called Uni ( the former Kad Chun , brother of corrupted Jedi Bruck Chun ) . The ship ' s day - to - day operations were financed by a collective onboard treasury contributed to by its resident passengers . The ship , almost self - sustaining , served as a galactic refuge for many species who were disenchanted or disillusioned with the galaxy ' s state of crime and corruption that , driven by corporate greed , sought to bleed planets of their natural resources with no thought or concern given to their inhabitants ― the disenfranchised of the galaxy who , having come aboard to follow Uni and his philosophical teachings , sought a new beginning filled with hope . This sentiment , however , was contrary to that which came to be adopted by Obi - Wan Kenobi , who in 29 BBY had been sent by the Jedi High Council with his Padawan Anakin Skywalker to investigate the onboard situation because of family - member complaints made to the Galactic Senate that the passengers were being held against their will . The Jedi Knight eventually came to believe that the " BioCruiser " held , rather , " a gathering of disillusioned idealists " holding " a philosophy of withdrawal . . . based in anger and bitter disappointment . " Kenobi staunchly professed the Jedi belief of " engagement " " with " the galaxy as key to solving conflicts , spurning the idea of " isolation " or a perceived need to " abandon the galaxy . " Nevertheless , the titanic " BioCruiser , " a colony ship with no destination , was undeniably a marvelous vessel . It boasted , in addition to the collective treasury and a state - of - the - art defense system , tech centers , scientific labs , and service industries , in which the passengers labored for the common good . Apart from its many technological innovations , it was outfitted for safety as well , with " escape liners " for mass evacuation should the need arise . A cosmopolitan array of restaurants and cafés featuring foods from many worlds , together with game rooms , libraries , music rooms , and a giant Collection Center that housed plants , flowers and animals from just as many diverse planets , completed this organic - socio - technological wonder that traversed space . History . The people of Telos IV held their natural resources in very high esteem . Vox Chun , the treasurer of Telos , joined forces with Offworld Mining Corporation ( UniFy ) to plunder the natural resources and start various mining projects on Telos . When the people of Telos discovered this , UniFy / Offworld was expelled from the planet . Unfortunately , years later , the planet was ruined further by other corporate enterprises and ventures . Thus did the people loyal to the planet and its preservation create the " BioCruiser , " to escape this corruption run rampant . The ship traveled to many other planets that had also succumbed to waste , corruption and corporate greed , taking aboard their variously skilled refugees , who likewise wanted to escape the desolation and find a new lease on life . Eventually , however , the families of the ship ' s passengers contacted the Senate and , by default , the Jedi Council to investigate , as it was thought ( because the ship ' s residents had since failed to contact their families ) , that the passengers were being held against their wills . The Council therefore dispatched Obi - Wan Kenobi and his Padawan Anakin Skywalker to investigate the situation ; it was Anakin ' s first mission . After several days aboard the ship , the Jedi duo ( with friends Den and Andra ) discovered that the passengers were not being held captive after all . There was , however , a surprising revelation : the ship ' s leader " Uni " turned out to be Kad Chun , the brother of Bruck Chun , a former Jedi student from Telos who fell to the dark side of the Force and became the apprentice of Xanatos . Bruck had died after dueling Kenobi in the Room of a Thousand Fountains while he was still a Padawan . Xanatos was the founder of Offworld Mining , otherwise known as UniFy , a Telosian combine ; he was , however , also the first Padawan of Jedi Master Qui - Gon Jinn . He ' d fallen to the dark side , to wreak havoc on the galaxy and , ultimately , to bring about the tragic deaths of both himself and his unfortunate Padawan , Bruck . Kad ( Uni ) was , not surprisingly , the self - proclaimed arch - enemy of Kenobi , as he immediately hated Obi - Wan for being cleared of all responsibility for his brother ' s death . Going through some personal records , Obi - Wan and Anakin discovered that Vox Chun , Brock and Uni ' s father , intended to have the ship destroyed by Offworld . Offworld droids would then rescue the residents and appear to be the heroes , while actually having been engaged in stealing the vast treasury — a collection of all the valuable personal assets of the residents of the " BioCruiser " . Vox was ultimately killed in the Offworld attack by Kern , a spy who managed to escape in a pod after battling with the Jedi . The Offworld battleship attack force was destroyed by the expert piloting of Jedi Knight Garen Muln and Skywalker , saving the onboard residents . The ship — escorted by the two Jedi pilots to the Tentrix system — would have been lost , but for Uni , Obi - Wan , and four crew members who stayed aboard the dying transport long enough for it to reach the planet Tentrix for repairs . As the sun rose over Tentrix on the morning after their arrival in the Tentrix system , Anakin Skywalker , standing with his Master on a docking platform above the vast blue planet , reflected upon his very first mission : Kenobi and Skywalker ' s next mission was to the planet of Zonama Sekot , where they engaged in the Second Battle of Zonama Sekot .
