- ―A comm officer, to Governor Wilhuff Tarkin
A transpirator was an apparatus used for protection against atmosphere with levels of toxicity by the Galactic Empire. Governor Wilhuff Tarkin was advised to wear one such equipment in[1] 14 BBY[2] during a visit to the ravaged Outer Rim planet of Murkhana.[1]

Notes and references[]
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 Tarkin
- ↑ Tarkin states that "Five standard years have passed since Darth Sidious proclaimed himself galactic Emperor," an event shown in Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith. Since Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the events of Revenge of the Sith to 19 BBY, it can be deduced that the events of Tarkin occur in 14 BBY.
