Background: The Mestra system, in the Minos
Cluster, contained no planets but had one of the
most expansive asteroid fields in the galaxy,
including the asteroid Javis-12. At least some of
the asteroids on Mestra hosted mining
operations. Though no accurate count had ever
been made, it was estimated that there were at
least 100 trillion sizable chunks of rock in the
system, hundreds of them the size of small
moons. The Mestra system had some of the
richest deposits of durelium ore, one of the more
valuable metals in the galaxy, for it was essential
in the construction of hyperdrives.
