The largest moon of the planet of Tifnyl had a thin atmosphere and primitive ecosystem. During the Galactic Civil War, the Galactic Empire had placed a listening post on the moon. A crew of ten technicians and ten Imperial Navy troopers manned the station, which was supplied by a Star Destroyer once a month. The post's military value was negligible; it was established by Moff Villis Andal as a ploy to get additional credits sent to his sector from the public dole.
