"Yeah, Chewie. Good to be home."
―Han Solo, upon returning to Mako-Ta[2]

TheMako-Ta Space Docks, also known asMako-Ta Base or justMako-Ta, was aRebel Alliance production center located inthe galaxy'sOuter Rim Territories. As the Alliance searched for a permanent base of operations, they set up in thespace station and established a base there.QueenTrios ofShu-Torun secretly revealed the base's location to theGalactic Empire, who launched anattack on the space docks. The Rebellion suffered major losses at Mako-Ta, notably to theAlliance High Command, but managed to escape with a number ofcruisers.

Description[]

"A shuttle has launched from Mako-Ta Base, Lord Vader."
―Kendal Ozzel, to Darth Vader[4]

Aspace station located in theOuter Rim Territories ofthe galaxy, Mako-Ta was taller vertically than it was wide, with modules of various sizes positioned around its top end.[2] It had at least four mess halls, one of which wasMess Hall IV.[7]

The base served as ashipyard and production center for theRebellion as they were on the run from the forces of theGalactic Empire. It was hidden amongasteroids orbiting close to abinary star system.[2]

Mako-Ta had at least one internalhangar[3] and several areas forstarships to dock, while other ships were left in the vicinity of the station.[8] None of the Rebel Alliance'sT-65B X-wing starfighters were stationed on Mako-Ta, though the station did have severalshuttles,[4] as well as aQuasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier.[3]

History[]

Expanding the fleet[]

"I've just been presenting preliminary reports on possible bases if Mako-Ta falls."
―Jan Dodonna, to Leia Organa[7]

The Mako-Ta Space Docks were constructed as an auxiliary facility byBotajef Shipyards, which eventually abandoned the facility when solar flares emitted from thebinary starsMako andTa. Eventually, the solar activity calmed, but trading routes had changed by that point, which left the Mako-Ta docks an unprofitable endeavor for Botajef. However, the backwater placement created a perfect base for theAlliance to Restore the Republic, which restarted the shipyards for its own uses.[1]

Fleet at Mako-Ta

The Alliance fleet at Mako-Ta.

In1 ABY,[9] after an unsuccessful attempt at convincingRegentDors Urtya to align hishomeworld ofMon Cala with the Rebel AlliancePrincessLeia Organa and herteam returned to the Mako-Ta Space Docks, where Organa contactedQueenTrios ofShu-Torun,[2] forming a plan to rescueKingLee-Char from anImperial base[7] onStrokill Prime.[10] While the rebel heroesLuke Skywalker,Han Solo, andChewbacca rested in Mess Hall IV, Organa met with theAlliance High Command, giving a report on their mission on Mon Cala and presenting her plan to rescue Lee-Char.[7] Their mission eventually succeeded, leading to amutiny of theMon Calamarifleet.[8]

Severalmonths after the Mon Calamari rebellion, the space docks had succeeded in filling out a dozenMC-series star cruisers, forming the core of an expandedAlliance Fleet. Unknown to all, however, Trios secretly was working as a double agent for theSith LordDarth Vader, whom she contacted with the fleet's location.[8]

Under attack[]

"This ain't no wargame, goldenrod! This is the most Imperials I've ever seen! Signal Mako-Ta Base. See if you can raise someone…"
―Han Solo, to C-3PO[4]
Attack on Mako-Ta begins

Death Squadron arrives to attack the rebel fleet.

While the rebels celebrated, the subgroups of their fleet, which had been set to disperse intohyperspace, found that thehyperdrives of their ships had been disabled. On the space station, Organa tried to contact the subgroup leaders, but received no reply. As she realized it had been a trap, Darth Vader arrived at Mako-Ta aboard hisflagship, theExecutor, accompanied by the rest ofDeath Squadron.AdmiralKendal Ozzel prepared to bombard the fleet, but Vader ordered him to wait, wishing to sense the fear of the trapped rebels. Vader ordered the destruction ofYavin's Hope, causing thedeath ofGeneralVanden Willard. As the rebels watched thecruiser's destruction, Trios fled toher ship, attempting to leave the space docks.[11] Organa andColonelBandwin Cor led a boarding party to Trios' ship, and successfully managed to board, but Trios herself fled in anescape pod.[4]

Organa returned to Mako-Ta, where GeneralDavits Draven informed her that a ship broadcasting a rebel signal could unlock thefighter bay doors. Cor attempted to use a shuttle to do so, but was shot down by severalTIE fighters. Han Solo and Chewbacca, who had escaped severalbounty hunters on theRing of Kafrene, arrived at the space docks in theMillennium Falcon. Theprotocol droidC-3PO contacted Organa, who informed Solo of the situation, requesting that he attempt to open the bay doors. As he tried, Darth Vader chased him in hisTIE Advanced.[4] Solo managed to gain distance from Vader by flying through the wreckage ofCommanderLajaie'scruiser, and launched C-3PO, inside of an escape pod, atJan Dodonna's flagshipRepublic, where the fighterpilots had been trapped. Luke Skywalker flew his X-wing at the door, which opened, allowing the rest of the pilots to escape and join the battle, formingRogue Squadron.[12]

As Rogue Squadron alerted the other cruisers of the method to open the bay doors,one of General Draven's mensliced into Trios' files, discovering that there was an override code to the systems aboard Vader's flagship, theExecutor. Organa formulated a plan to take control of Trios' ship, which was still docked at Mako-Ta, and impersonate the queen in order to receive permission to land on theExecutor. Along with Draven and some of his troops, she left the space docks in Trios' ship, and was allowed to land on theStar Dreadnought.[13] Organa managed to return the override codes to theRepublic, which was then able to jump to hyperspace and escape the Imperials. Once the cruiser had escaped, General Dodonna had the codes distributed to smaller ships so they could return to Mako-Ta and rescue the rest of the fleet. However, Organa and Skywalker persuaded Dodonna to assist them using the cruiser itself.[14]

Return to Mako-Ta

Organa and Skywalker's transport returns to Mako-Ta.

TheRepublic returned to Mako-Ta, bombarding theExecutor. As theStar Destroyers converged on the cruiser, several small rebeltransports jumped from hyperspace, guarded by Rogue Squadron. From one of the transports, Organa contactedChancellorMon Mothma aboard Mako-Ta Base. She and Skywalker landed their transport in a docking bay on Mako-Ta, collecting the rebels who remained on the station. As the other ships landed on each cruiser, broadcasting the override code, the rebelambassadors made their way aboard Organa's transport. Mothma took the transport and left while Organa and Skywalker rescued Solo, who was stuck aboard a damaged X-wing. The reactivated cruisers escaped Mako-Ta, dispersing into hyperspace, and Solo was rescued by aQuasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier that had been left at the base. Piloted by Skywalker, thecarrier landed on themoonCorosi 7, leaving the abandoned Mako-Ta Space Docks behind.[3]
