- "Hah. Not happening. Rate you're going, you won't even make flight training. They'll send you to someplace warm and wretched. Like Urthak. Or worse, Mimban."
"Only way you're going back to Corellia is in your dreams, Solo." - ―The Dree brothers, to Han Solo
Urthak was a location with a warm and wretched climate[2] that was located in the Urthak system within the Mid Rim's Gendius sector. It was situated in grid square J-17 of the Standard Galactic Grid.[1] Urthak was one of several locations where the Galactic Empire sent its forces during the Imperial Era.[2] In 13 BBY,[3] when Han Solo, a cadet at the Empire's Carida Academy, told fellow cadets Lyttan and Tamu Dree that he joined the Empire to return to the planet Corellia, the Dree brothers dismissed his hopes, instead believing he would be sent to serve at locations such as Urthak or[2] the planet[4] Mimban.[2]
Behind the scenes
Urthak was mentioned in the first issue of the 2018 Star Wars: Han Solo - Imperial Cadet comic miniseries. The issue was written by Robbie Thompson and published by Marvel Comics[2] on November 7, 2018.[5]
