Notes and references

↑ ^1.0 ^1.1 ^1.2 Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide
↑ Yppysshyk's signature in Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide is placed chronologically after Han Solo's first entry in the book, which mentions the death of Tobias Beckett. It is placed prior to Solo's second entry in the book, which details events after he had begun working with the Alliance to Restore the Republic, as depicted during the Battle of Yavin in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, but before he encounters a bounty hunter on Ord Mantell, which is mentioned as having occurred prior to the Battle of Hoth in Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back. Solo: A Star Wars Story The Official Guide dates the events on Savareen in Solo: A Star Wars Story, which includes Beckett's death, to nine years after the formation of the Galactic Empire. Given that Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the formation of the Empire to 19 BBY, Beckett's death must take place in 10 BBY. Galactic Atlas also establishes that the year 0 ABY begins following the conclusion of the Battle of Yavin and dates the Battle of Hoth to 3 ABY. Therefore, Yppysshyk's signature in the in-universe book Smuggler's Guide must have been written between 10 BBY and 3 ABY, with Solo's second entry being written after 0 BBY.
