The Y-8 was a Corellian Engineering Corporation mining vessel which dominated mining operations throughout the galaxy.
The Y-8 was designed as the ultimate in mining technology, equipped with a full array of lasers and tractor beams for mining lucrative asteroid belts. It was equipped with heavy shielding for protection from pirates and meteors. The core of Corellian Engineering Corporation
