History


When it was captured by the Death Star, the Millennium Falcon was pulled into Bay 327 through a tractor beam. Evading detection, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Chewbacca launched a covert effort to rescue Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan from her captivity, with C-3PO and R2-D2 coordinating their efforts from Bay 327's control center. At the same time, Jedi Master Obi-Wan disabled the tractor beam surrounding Bay 327, before being confronted by his former apprentice Darth Vader who ultimately struck him down in a duel in the vicinity of the ''Millennium Falcon''. Despite the intervention of Imperial Stormtroopers, Skywalker and his allies ultimately escaped.
