"There's nothing like this on Endor."
―Teebo[src]

A capsule carried the Stranger to the Forest Moon of Endor. In 3 ABY, two moons near Endor aligned, and a rift in space opened, through which the capsule traveled. The capsule fell toward the forested moon, and the young Ewoks Wicket Wystri Warrick and Teebo saw it and mistook it for a Comet. When the capsule touched down, the Stranger emerged, and the craft was located by the two Ewoks and their friends Kneesaa a Jari Kintaka and Latara. As the Ewoks began to carry the capsule back to their village, it illuminated, spun rapidly, and vanished.

History

The Ewok children come upon the capsule.

In 3 ABY,[2] the a capsule carried the Stranger to the Forest Moon of Endor. When the capsule landed, the Stranger made his way to the Dulok swamps, but not before witnessing the Ewoks, Wicket Wystri Warrick and Teebo coming across the ship. Wicket and Teebo, with help from Latara and Kneesaa a Jari Kintaka, tried to carry the capsule back to Bright Tree Village. Wicket took a piece of it and attached it to his Belt of Honor as proof of his quest towards becoming a full-fledged Ewok warrior.[1]

The capsule, shortly before vanishing

As the Ewoks walked, the capsule illuminated bright purple light and began to spin in a circle. The speed increased until the capsule was a blur, and the Ewoks stepped back. The capsule then disintegrated into a cloud of smoke, leaving no trace except for the "trophy" on Wicket's belt.[1]
