In the year 0 BBY, a daring team of rebel saboteurs, known by the code name "Rogue One," successfully stole and transmitted the plans for the DS1 Orbital Battle Station to the rebel fleet. The mission took place on Scarif, where the team engaged in a fierce battle with Imperial forces to obtain the crucial data. The files were labeled "Stardust," and Princess Leia Organa was entrusted with delivering them to the rebel high command.

The stakes were high, as the plans contained vital information about the Empire's super weapon, the Death Star. The Rebel Alliance hoped to find a weakness in the station and destroy it before it could wreak further havoc. Leia's journey to deliver the plans was fraught with danger and obstacles, but she persevered, ultimately delivering the critical intelligence to the rebel leaders. The success of the mission and the bravery of Rogue One would go down in history as a turning point in the fight against the Empire.

In tribute to the sacrifice of Cassian Andor, Jyn Erso, Chirrut Îmwe, Ruescott Melshi, K-2SO, and Baze Malbus, Luke Skywalker and Wedge Antilles created the elite Rogue Squadron.
