The StarSpeeder 3000 accidentally lands too close to the third Death Star.
Star Tours Flight 45 (also known as ST-45) was the designation of the inaugural non-stop flight to the Forest Moon of Endor, offered to passengers by the Star Tours travel agency, shortly after the Battle of Endor. This route was known as the "Endor Express."[1]
The Star Tours flight was piloted by RX-Series pilot droid designated RX-24, but due to Rex's nervousness and inexperience, Flight ST-45 never reached Endor. Instead, the ship, a StarSpeeder 3000, accidentally flew into the middle of a battle between Alliance of Free Planets and Kaarenth Dissension forces near the third Death Star.[1]
