![]() Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds: Clone Campaigns.Darth Plagueis audiobook (Mentioned only).Indeed, the later Star Wars: The Old Republic seems to fix this issue, by showing the Nova crystal as a bluish-white crystal with an inner luminescence, which is in line with the new canon version. Nova crystals have not been green since this game, excluding a singular special instance in Star Wars Galaxies. It wasn't until 2001 in Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds that Nova crystals were portrayed as green in the game they are found on virtually every world, and are used to fund research for advanced technologies and pay for troops and vehicles. This was upheld by Twin Stars of Kira 1993, which described Nova crystals as sparkling and prismatic. ![]() There seems to be a discrepancy in the color of Nova crystals Nova crystals were first described as bluish-white with a luminescence in the 1984 A Guide to the Star Wars Universe first edition, which expanded on the 1979 Han Solo at Stars' End (which itself mentioned, but did not describe Nova crystals). ![]() Behind the scenes Īn example of green Nova crystals in Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds Sizable Nova crystal deposits were extremely rare, and were significant enough that their discovery had huge economic implications when Nova crystal veins were found on Krann, the Galactic Empire subjugated the entire planet and enslaved the native Kluuzot to harvest the crystals. Nova crystals made up the primary industry of the planet Cotellier, but the world was remote enough to be harassed by pirates regularly, and never rose to the fame of Mygeeto. The planet Mygeeto held immense deposits of nova crystals, which contributed greatly to its reputation for mineral wealth. Nova crystals notably helped bankroll the first Death Star project for the Empire. ![]() Less commonly, raw crystals could be used as explosive devices. Additionally, due to their ability to amplify light, Nova crystals had numerous applications in optoelectronics, being used in the construction of photoreceptors and sensors. Nova crystals were a valuable gemstone used as currency on the Outer Rim, and were commonly crafted into valuable jewelry. Raw crystals thus have to be refrigerated for transport, where they are then taken to industrial worlds where they can be bonded to inert trace elements that stabilize the crystalline matrices. Such raw crystals were highly explosive, and capable of exploding with incredible force, with even a single small flake capable of completely destroying a A-A6z Speeder Truck. Mining Nova crystals was risky and dangerous business, however when removed from its rocky matrix and exposed to temperatures over thirty degrees celsius, a raw nova crystal became increasing unstable and prone to spontaneous reaction to the slightest jarring. This created the Nova crystal's signature glow, which was often bright enough to be its own light source. Key to the Nova crystal was its unique crystalline matrix this matrix, when exposed to bright sunlight (especially in the red color band), absorbed heat from ambient light and became excited energetically. Nova crystals were bluish-white gemstones that possessed the unusual property of amplifying light, glowing with an inner luminescence as a result, characterized by a glimmering prismatic sparkle.
