Jaden, I'm sending you to Hoth, where I had a vision of Obi-Wan Kenobi.— Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
Hoth is the sixth planet in the remote system of the same name, first seen in the film Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back. It is featured in Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, when Jaden Korr is sent to the planet in order to investigate the site of Luke Skywalker's vision of Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Overview
Hoth is a world of snow and ice, surrounded by numerous moons. Small meteorites that have wandered away from a nearby asteroid field constantly pelt Hoth's icy surface. This icy world has developed a number of indigenous lifeforms, including the wampa ice creature, and the tauntaun. The daytime temperatures of Hoth were bearable for properly dressed humans, but the Hoth nights are too hostile even for the native creatures.
