Kh’ymm’s observatory[2] was an ancient telescopic array on the Observatory Moon that was operated by the alien Kh'ymm during the New Republic Era.[1]
During 9 ABY,[3] the crew of the Onyx Cinder visited Kh'ymm at the array as part of their search for a way back home to At Attin. Using her archive at the array she was able to find what she believed were the coordinates for At Attin, however they turned out to be the coordinates to At Achrann.[1]
Behind the scenes
The telescopic array first appeared in "Very Interesting, As an Astrogation Problem," the third episode of the live–action Disney+ series Star Wars: Skeleton Crew which aired on December 10, 2024.[1]

- ↑ 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.
