Capella was a mining world located in the Capella system. It was situated in the Back Reach area of the Gordian Reach sector within the Trans-Hydian portion of the Outer Rim Territories. Capella was linked via hyperlane to the Arda and Little Capella systems.[1] It was the origin point of Capellan turg-roots.[2][3] Mining operations there were mostly carried out by droids and robominers manufactured by the inhabitants of the Arda system.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Capella was introduced in the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, authored by Daniel Wallace and Jason Fry, which placed it in grid square Q-6.[1]

The Essential Atlas and Galactic Cartography: Official Discussion on the Jedi Council Forums (Literature board; posted by jasonfry on December 11, 2007 at 7:59 AM; accessed February 2, 2024): "I wouldn't get your hopes up re alien homeworlds, beyond simple stuff like the Planetnamian species getting a Planetnamia on the map or things Dan and I can account for with a relatively quick reference." (backup link) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for Capellan turg-root in relation to the Capella system and specifically Capella.
