- "It was the most awful thing I've ever seen. Theta storms kill in two ways, you see. If you're contaminated from a distance, well, it takes a long time to die. But if you are in the storm's path it will rip you to pieces and then melt your bones. I've seen it kill both ways, and both ways are cruel. Better to be swallowed alive by a sarlacc."
- ―Qui-Gon Jinn, to Obi-Wan Kenobi
A theta storm was a sunspot activity that agitated radioactive theta particles in a planet's atmosphere.
