The Kaliida Shoals Medical Center was a space station that served the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars.[1]

[edit] Characteristics
The space station was powered by a reactor slung underneath the main structure of the station. The control hub was located in a tower at the top of the structure, while the eight main medical bays, filled with bacta tanks, covered much of the interior. Each medical station had a vertical gap for accommodating a Republic medical frigate. The station was painted in the characteristic red stripes of other Republic vessels.[2]
[edit] History
The station began as a merchant hub in the Enarc system. At some point before the war, it was abandoned as a derelict station, and at the beginning of hostilities was bought by the Republic.[1] It was refurbished with standardized habitation modules and medical facilities and towed by Republic tugs to the Ryndellia system near the Kaliida Nebula, where it served as a medical center. The station received injured clone troopers, who were treated by the staff, which included the empathic Kaminoan doctor Nala Se.[1]
During the Clone Wars, the station fell under the assault of General Grievous' forces, however Anakin Skywalker and Shadow Squadron foiled the attack.[2] This marked one of the earliest deployments of the new BTL-B Y-wing starfighter.[3] At the time of the attack, the station was caring for some 60,000 wounded clones.
