Kostra system

The Kostra system was a part of the Romintine sector in the Trans-Hydian portion of the Mid Rim. It contained the inhabited terrestrial astronomical object Kostra. At some point between 2 BBY and 0 BBY, the forces of the Galactic Empire attacked Kostra as part of its attempts to suppress Rebel Alliance activities. During that confrontation, Imperial Senator Leia Organa visited the Kostra system on her consular starship, the Tantive IV, and the visit was one of a number of instances where Organa helped the Alliance with logistical or communications support or intentionally caused a distraction for Imperial forces.
In addition, during that same engagement, in which the Empire emerged victorious, the Alliance Y-wing starfighter pilot Fulkrehm Protial was forced to crash-land on Kostra. By the time shortly after the Battle of Yavin, Protial, who had survived the incident, had gone on to serve at the Rebel base on the Outer Rim Territories — Based on corresponding data for Berrol's Donn system celestial body Berrol's Donn.
