Shuxl system

The Shuxl system was a part of the Yarith sector of the Outer Rim Territories. It was situated on the Corellian Trade Spine hyperlane and featured rings of powder—as opposed to planets—as well as a hyperspace nav buoy. Like the rest of the Yarith sector, the star system was originally part of the Javin sector and the Anoat sector. During the Galactic Civil War, the Jedi trainee Luke Skywalker and the Rebel Alliance light freighter Millennium Falcon both passed through the Shuxl system on separate occasions.
==Description==
The Shuxl system was located in the Yarith sector, a part of the Greater Javin region in the Western Reaches portion of the Outer Rim Territories. It lay on the super-hyperroute known as the Corellian Trade Spine, which connected it to the Anantapar system and the neighboring Anoat sector's Ertegas system. The Shuxl system was situated within the Ivax Nebula, and it contained rings of powder but no planets or asteroids.
==History==
After the Galactic Republic's victory in a war against the nearby civilization of the Mugaari species at some point between approximately 1000 BBY and 600 BBY, the former established the Javin sector in the former Mugaari Space. Around 400 BBY, the portion of the sector containing the Shuxl system was re-designated as the new Anoat sector, and generations after that, the Anoat itself was further split into two parts, with Shuxl becoming a part of the Yarith sector. The Shuxl system was notable only for a hyperspace nav buoy that helped re-orient starships traveling along the Corellian Trade Spine.
Following the Galactic Civil War's Battle of Hoth in 3 ABY,The New Essential Chronology the Jedi trainee Luke Skywalker traveled from the Anoat sector's Hoth system to the Dagobah system of the Sluis sector in order to undergo further training under Jedi Master Yoda. Piloting his X-wing starfighter, Skywalker transited the Shuxl system on the way to the Dagobah system. Later, the Jedi passed through the same system on a return journey to the Anoat sector that he undertook in order to rescue his Rebel Alliance–aligned friends after witnessing them being in danger via a vision of the Force. The Rebel light freighter Millennium Falcon subsequently likewise traveled through the Shuxl system while journeying to a rendezvous with the Alliance Fleet.
==Behind the scenes==
The Shuxl system was introduced in Wizards of the Coast's Star Wars Roleplaying Game supplement "Galactic Gazetteer: Hoth and the Greater Javin," which was published on Wizards.com on March 25, 2004. The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the system in grid square K-18.
