This article is about the starship. You may be looking for the podracer the ship is named for.

"Our ship bears a resemblance to the shyyyo bird, but we didn't want to call it that, so we named it after our favorite podracer, Gasgano."
―B8-T5, in journal of Ardis San Tekka[1]

Gasgano was a starship that belonged to Galactic Society of Creature Enthusiasts Director of Creature Cartography Ardis San Tekka and her safari droid companion B8-T5. The vessel resembled a shyyyo bird, but the pair did not wish to use that as a name and instead named the vessel after their favorite podracer,[1] the Xexto[2] Gasgano. When observing animals, B8-T5 recorded data and audio for the pair to analyze back on the Gasgano. B8-T5 then mentioned the Gasgano in an entry on whisper birds in San Tekka's journal[1] at some point after the Battle of Exegol in 35 ABY.[3]

Behind the scenes

The Gasgano was mentioned in the 2024 reference book Star Wars Bestiary, Vol. 1: Creatures of the Galaxy, which was written by S.T. Bende.[1]
