Sanyassa was an astronomical object[3] located in the Sanyassa system of the Moddell sector, a subsector of the Zuma sector of the Outer Rim Territories. It was situated in grid square H-16 of the Standard Galactic Grid[1] on the Bakura Trace hyperspace route, which linked it to the Ast Kikorie and Endor systems.[2] The Moddell sector's hyperspace anomalies sometimes transported starships to the Endor system from as far away as Sanyassa.[3] Sanyassa was eventually depicted on a map of the Moddell sector included with the Rebel Alliance collection of non-electronic documents known as The Rebel Files.[4]
Behind the scenes
Sanyassa's name was introduced in the current Star Wars canon via a mention in the eighteenth issue of De Agostini's Star Wars: Build the Millennium Falcon magazine,[2] which was published around May 6, 2015.[5] It was subsequently established as a distinct celestial body in the 2019 reference book Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary by Pablo Hidalgo.[3] In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the planet Sanyassa IV was introduced in the ninth issue of the Star Wars Gamer magazine[6] on February 22, 2002.[7] Within the magazine, the planet was mentioned in the source article "Endor and the Moddell Sector" as well as the roleplaying adventure "Race for the Tessent," both being written for use with Wizards of the Coast's Star Wars Roleplaying Game.[6][8]
