Description: The Shattered Moon was a moon in orbit around the planet Koboh.
During the High Republic Era, due to the abundance of Koboh matter on the moon, the Galactic Republic built the Republic Research Laboratory there to study the unique anomalous material. the moon was decimated by an Emergence slamming into the moon. It was one of many Emergences that were the result of a collision between the massive Legacy Run freighter and a Nihil ship inside Hyperspace in 232 BBY. This cataclysmic event which ended up being responsible for the casualties of billions would be dubbed the Great Hyperspace Disaster. The fragments of the Legacy Run traveled at speeds capable of destroying not only the surface of astronomical bodies, but the entirety of worlds themselves, and did so to the Shattered Moon, being the reason it is 'shattered.'
After the collision, the Republic, in tandem with the Jedi High Council, ordered the evacuation of its host-planet Koboh to prevent mass loss of life caused by fragments of the Shattered Moon. Not long after, a fragment of the moon collided with the planet, destroying part of the Central Manse, the main base of operations for the Jedi Order in the Koboh system.
In 9 BBY, the orbit of the Shattered Moon became relatively stable, with rocky debris creating a multi-layered ring around what's left of the moon's equator, as well as multiple large chunks of it serving as individual smaller moons. According to Koboh system locals, the moon was haunted. The moon was the site of the death of the Gen'Dai Rayvis, who was defeated in combat by Jedi Knight Cal Kestis.

Republic Research Laboratory
The Republic Research Laboratory also known as the High Republic Moon Laboratory, or High Republic Research Facility, was a Galactic Republic research laboratory on the Shattered Moon of Koboh during the High Republic Era, that later came under the control of the Bedlam Raiders during the Imperial Era. The facility was the first research station built by the Republic in the Koboh system due to the moon's abundance of Koboh matter, a unique anomalous material that the facility personnel aimed to study. When the planet Tanalorr began to be prepared for use by the Hidden Path, the Stinger Mantis crew considered taking the droids that had been left in the laboratory since the High Republic Era to the planet.
