Gan Basso was a male Duros pilot who worked as a hyperspace trailblazer in the early centuries after the founding of the Galactic Republic in 25,053 BBY. A daredevil pilot who lived for the thrill of adventure, Basso was often the first to volunteer for dangerous scouting missions. Among Basso's discoveries was the planet Ord Mantell in the Mid Rim. However, Basso's career and his life came to an end when his ship's hasty jump to hyperspace sent the starship into the sun of the Datar system.
