Pandora Station was the first of two Pandora-class space stations commissioned by Admiral Maxwell Gandel, the second being Hamunaptra Station. Commissioned near the end of the Imperial Civil War by a third party contractor (Goran Brynzle Shipping and Construction) for an undisclosed price, Pandora was meant to serve as a mobile command and support center for the 105th Imperial fleet. To facilitate this role Pandora sported four fully functional drydock facilities, each large enough to berth an Imperial Star Destroyer or a number of smaller combat vessels. Despite the 105th's relative lack of action during the Imperial Civil War, Pandora was nonetheless equipped with machine shops and fabrication facilities that could, if needed, produce almost any replacement part needed by the fleet.
