The Mission to Blenjeel took place in 14 ABY. When a merchant fleet crashed on the planet, Jaden Korr was sent to rescue them. But due to atmospheric lightning, he crashed on Blenjeel, and his ship was severely damaged. After trekking to the crash site, Korr saw the last survivor being devoured by a sand burrower. Korr may have used thermal detonators to kill some sand burrowers. The detonators produced sufficient vibrations in the sand to trick the sand burrowers into believing it was prey for them.
