Bespin, home to the infamous Cloud City, is a gas giant in the Bespin system of the Anoat Sector on the Ison Corridor in the Greater Javin region of the Outer Rim Territories. It is also a major source of tibanna gas, which was refined for production and transport in numerous mining operations including Cloud City and Tibannopolis. It is home to several million individuals, including Humans, Ugnaughts, and Lutrillians.

|The planet Bespin was a gas giant that was about 118,000 kilometers in diameter. Like most gas giants, it had a solid core made of metal (in this case, rethin) followed by layers of metallic gases. Most of the layers of gas were poisonous, and the pressure and temperature were far above what a Human could tolerate. But from approximately 150 to 180 kilometers down from space, there was a habitable layer known as the Bespin Life Zone. This layer had an oxygen atmosphere with temperature and pressure suitable for Human life. It was in this layer that Cloud City was located. Like most gas giants, Bespin had a number of moons. It had a 12 hour day, and completed a revolution around its sun about every 14 years.

Bespin, home to the infamous Cloud City, is a gas giant in the Bespin system of the Anoat Sector on the Ison Corridor in the Greater Javin region of the Outer Rim Territories. It is also a major source of tibanna gas, which was refined for production and transport in numerous mining operations including Cloud City and Tibannopolis. It is home to several million individuals, including Humans, Ugnaughts, and Lutrillians.

Geography
The planet Bespin was a gas giant that was about 118,000 kilometers in diameter. Like most gas giants, it had a solid core made of metal (in this case, rethin) followed by layers of metallic gases. Most of the layers of gas were poisonous, and the pressure and temperature were far above what a Human could tolerate. But from approximately 150 to 180 kilometers down from space, there was a habitable layer known as the Bespin Life Zone. This layer had an oxygen atmosphere with temperature and pressure suitable for Human life. It was in this layer that Cloud City was located. Like most gas giants, Bespin had a number of moons. It had a 12 hour day, and completed a revolution around its sun about every 14 years.

Bespin's fauna included the winged Tibannucks, velkers, rawwks, the gas-filled beldon, and airborne algae sacks.

Economy
The main economy on Bespin was the mining of tibanna gas. Tibanna gas was a very important resource used by both the Alliance to Restore the Republic and the Galactic Empire for powering weapons. When supercharged, the gas could fire a bolt of energy, resulting in the blaster shot. Most of the settlements on Bespin were mining colonies, such as Lando Calrissian's facility in 3 ABY.
History

The planet was first colonized in 1,989 BBY [source?] when Lord Ecclessis Figg first commissioned Cloud City, to be built by the Incom Corporation at the same time. The planet had its own Jedi Enclave. During the New Sith Wars, the Brotherhood of Darkness captured the planet.

In 22 BBY, the planet served as a refuge for children orphaned by the Clone Wars, but it was soon conquered by the Confederacy itself. It was a great loss for the entire Galactic Republic; the Confederacy had secured the Tibanna gas refineries that were the main source of energy for the Republic's turbolasers aboard capital ships.

Sometime during the Galactic Civil War, Lando Calrissian served as Baron Administrator of Cloud City. He helped provide well-paying jobs for the Ugnaughts, and was admired and liked by the citizens of Cloud City.

When Han Solo, along with Leia Organa, C-3PO, and Chewbacca came to Cloud City in 3 ABY to escape from the Empire, they walked into a trap set up by Darth Vader, which Lando was forced into aiding. Han Solo was frozen into Carbonite and Leia Organa and Chewbacca were to remain in the city. As Boba Fett brought Han onto his ship, Slave I, Lando with Lobot's help, got the two out of Imperial controller along with blasted Threepio and tried to rescue Han from Fett but failed.

Meanwhile, Luke Skywalker dueled Vader, lost his right hand, and Vader revealed that he was Luke's father. Pinned between the choice of going with his long-lost father or dying by his blade, Luke plunged into an air vent. When he fell, he managed to grasp onto a weather vane beneath the city. In pain from his wound and his new knowledge, Luke pleaded for Obi-Wan Kenobi's help, to no avail. He managed to telepathically communicate with Leia, and was rescued by the Millennium Falcon. The Falcon in turn managed to escape from the Executor when R2-D2 fixed the disabled hyperdrive.

Lando would eventually return to being Baron Administrator. However, a garrison of troops was left on the planet. Lobot temporarily ousted the garrison from the planet by tricking them into thinking Cloud City's repulsorlift pods were compromised.

Later, just before the Battle of Endor, the Alliance removed the renewed Imperial presence there by leading Rogue Squadron and the Rebel SpecForce against the Empire in the Battle of Bespin. The Rebel victory secured shipment of vital Tibanna to the Rebel cause.
