- "It's like I'm seasick or something. You know how I got floating on the waves on Camus IV, pal, that time we tried to take a little vacation?"
- ―Han Solo, to Chewbacca
Camus IV was the fourth planet[3] in the Camus system[1] of the Illisurevimurasi sector, located within the Trans-Hydian portion of the Outer Rim Territories.[2] Sometime prior to the Battle of Hoth in 3 ABY,[4] the smugglers Han Solo and Chewbacca once vacationed on Camus IV, but Solo became seasick while floating among the planet's ocean waves.[3]
Behind the scenes
Camus IV was created for the 1998 young-readers story Star Wars Journal: Hero for Hire, written by Donna Tauscher.[3]
The StarWars.com Online Companion to the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Camus system, and therefore the planet itself, in grid square Q-4.[1]

- ↑ Star Wars Journal: Hero for Hire is set immediately following Han Solo's liberation from carbonite, as depicted in the film Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi. The preceding film, Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back, which The Essential Reader's Companion dates to 3 ABY, covers Solo's time from the Battle of Hoth to his carbon-freezing, thus placing his trip to Camus IV sometime prior.
