- "We all have a place in the Great Work."
- ―Fara
The Great Work was a program run by the government of the planet At Attin[1] to produce Republic credits[3] as a way of helping the Galactic Republic.[1] Unaware that[4] he was correct,[1] Neel speculated that the Great Work might have something to do with the credits used on At Attin,[4] which were identified at Port Borgo as being from the "Old Republic" during the New Republic Era.[5]
The Great Work turned out to be the Old Republic Mint on At Attin, something which was known to At Attin's adults but not children until they had completed an Assessment.[3] After tracking the Skeleton Crew children Fern, Wim, KB and Neel back to their homeworld, the pirate Jod Na Nawood discovered the Mint.[6] Nawood and his pirates invaded the planet with the intention of seizing the Mint and subjugating its population but were defeated by the children, Fara, Wendle and the New Republic Defense Fleet.[3]

Star Wars: Skeleton Crew — "This Could Be a Real Adventure"
- ↑ Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of "Chapter 1: The Mandalorian" of The Mandalorian Season One to 9 ABY. In addition,
"A Certain Point of View" — Star Wars Insider 228 also dates "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" to nine years after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which corresponds to 9 ABY per Timelines. "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" takes place after the conflict on Mandalore, which is the main event depicted in "Chapter 23: The Spies" and "Chapter 24: The Return," the final two episodes of The Mandalorian Season Three. Therefore, Seasons One through Three of Star Wars: The Mandalorian must all be set in 9 ABY as well. 
SWCA 2022: 20 Highlights from Lucasfilm's Studio Showcase on StarWars.com (backup link) states that Star Wars: Skeleton Crew takes place in the same timeframe as Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Star Wars: Ahsoka—the latter of which can also be dated to 9 ABY following the reasoning here. As such, Skeleton Crew must take place around 9 ABY as well.
