Just wondering which one is Kessel? The round one or the other 1? --CHIMES 15:31, 15 Jan 2006 (UTC)

• The potatoe shaped one. The other one is the moon. I think it's supposed to be some sort of artist joke that it's such a backward that it is even shaped like a planet. -- SFH 01:24, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Kessel destroyedEdit

I wasn't creating fanon before, it says so on Timeline gold. Lt. 1993 16:59, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

Cleanup Edit

The timeline on this page is a mess; it jumps into the future for Moruth Doole, then back to the past for the Ion Ring and Trioculus. Thanos6 22:29, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

I think we can take the "mess" tag off now ; although the page still needs some tinkering. Cizungu 18:10, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

Should we refer to Kessel as a planet? -Aiddat 23:41, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

I Doubt that Because Kessel needs Machines to Produce a Atmoshpere and is as far as I know a Asteroid.

• Actually it is stated that it has an extremely thin atmosphere and it has automated plants to strengthen it but apparently the atmosphere is leaking faster than the plants can create atmosphere.

Damn! Edit

And I thought Kessel was a wookie!!

Color?? Edit

Most illustrations of Kessel have it brownish-gray like a big rock (After all it is). In one of the Rogue squadron games however, it shows the surface and has it red like Mars. In the game Empire at War it's surface is gray. I don't know which portrayal is accurate... Can someone tell me?Stormiefan 00:01, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

I agree, it isn't very consistant. I personally prefer the red. --Matt 20 1 03:59, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Potato Edit

Kessel looks like a giant potato dont you think

Doesn't make sense. Edit

If Kessel were really big enough to hold an atmosphere large enough to breathe with a bas mask, then it's own gravitational forces would smooth it out into a sphere. 65.25.71.246 14:12, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Location Edit

I'm not sure if you can count them as canon, but the Risk games have Kessel in different places.

This article states Kessel is in the Outer Rim. CW Risk has it in Wild Space GCW Risk has it in the Mid Rim.

So... where is it?--Matt 20 1 04:07, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Little Kessel Edit

Hello all, I was digging through the Jedi Council Forums on TFN and found the reconciliation between the lush Kessel from The Second Kessel Run and the rocky one from all other sources. The lush Kessel has been retconned into the planet Little Kessel. Jason Fry confirmed this here: http://boards.theforce.net/literature/b10003/21938930/p90. If the link doesn't work, he made the post on 8/20 at 8:45am, you can search that way. But it's official. Taral, Dark Lord of the Sith 13:39, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

• I just created the page Little Kessel and transferred over the info relevant to The Second Kessel Run. I also deleted that info from this page. I haven't added the infobox yet to Little Kessel, which I'll need to do tonight. Since this retcon kind of appears out of the blue, despite being sourced, I thought I'd explain my actions on these talk pages. I'm obeying the Be Bold rule, but want to make sure the admins know that this isn't fanon. Taral, Dark Lord of the Sith 14:20, September 21, 2009 (UTC)
  • Is there some other clarification by him that mentions the Glove of Darth Vader? I only see him confirming that Little Kessel is the planet in The Second Kessel Run, not necessarily the same planet from GoDV. Since we've had other authors mention the "atmosphere generator boost" as a way to reconcile the open air stadium, I'm not sure that we can take Jason's statement as canon fact that Little Kessel appears in GoDV. I'm going to revert that part in the meantime. Cull Tremayne 03:27, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

Force Creature on KesselEdit

Does anyone know what the voice in the tomb was in Omen? Was in Abeloth? It spoke to Alana and asked for her name. Then she ran away and told Han and Leia to take them with her on their mission to prevent the destruction of Kessel as she felt that it would get her if she was on garrison moon(Little Kessel). Any info would be appreciated.
