Sous

"Ah, Sous. The first casualty of the quark bomb."

- Senator of the Mid-Deep Core, Tytus Serrivus

Sous was a planet in the Deep Core that was home to 75 billion people. It was ravaged by a one Teraton(1,000,000,000,000,000 kg of TNT) bomb. It caused the whole surface to turn into radioactive rock, and the shockwave crawled across the surface at one-12th the speed of light.

History
Sous was a new planet in galactic history, being discovered in 980 BBY. The republic could never annex it, and the planet remained bustling until 13 ABY, when the whole planet was ravaged by a Quark Bomb.

Bombing
The blast from the bomb caused everything less than 40 miles away from the bomb to turn into plasma. The blast was so bright and fast it actually caused some ejecta to escape the atmosphere. Many spaceships above thought that a meteorite had hit the planet, and hyperspaced out of the system. The blast wave then touched itself and caused a blast about a fourth as strong as the first one. The surface, when the dust and debris settled, was absolutely barren, the planet's surface was completely flat, like everything that wasn't rock was cleaned off the surface.
