Nebula Award
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
The Nebula Award was a military decoration awarded to Rebel Alliance staff and Special Forces members "who displayed uncompromising loyalty and unswerving bravery in the face of imminent danger". It was unknown whether the Rebel Alliance's offspring, the Alliance of Free Planets, New Republic, and Galactic Federation of Free Alliances, continued to award the Nebula.
The Nebula Award was given twice to General Airen Cracken; one of the times for surviving capture and Bavo Six interrogation at the hands of the Imperial Security Bureau on Quanton. His other Nebula Award was given for an unknown feat.
The Award was also given in absentia to an agent known at the time only as Jan Strange (later known to be Jan Ors), who infiltrated Imperial Intelligence to engage in counter-intelligence, sabotage, and covert extraction.
[edit] Behind the scenes
Nebula Award in real life is a significant award given to science fiction writers, like Hugo, Philip K. Dick etc.
