Description
Scarif is a remote tropical planet located in the Abrion sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Known for its idyllic island chains and crystal-clear oceans, Scarif became a significant location during the Galactic Civil War. The Galactic Empire established a major military installation on the planet, which included the Imperial security complex and the construction facility for the Death Star.
History
Scarif gained prominence as the site of the Battle of Scarif, where the Rebel Alliance conducted a daring raid to steal the Death Star plans. The successful mission, though costly, provided the critical information needed to exploit a weakness in the Death Star, leading to its eventual destruction. The planet's surface was heavily damaged during the battle, and the Imperial facility was destroyed by the Death Star's superlaser.
