Huh, you're right.
I assumed that this upgrade would be paired with a salvage roll, but I misread it.
<fist pump> Yes! Rediscovering the Tomb of the Third Barsen'thor, Grand Warden of the Jedi Order, could be big, especially if it contains any records from the Cold War era (3653-3642 BBY). This might pair nicely with our efforts to reform the Jedi, and our work with both the Tython and Corellian Jedi sects.
As for the Ord Mantell event:
There are a few interesting characters here, most notably 'Mama', a smuggler and information broker.
It's a junkyard the size of an entire hemisphere -- half the planet is covered in this stuff -- which means there is probably a lot of random Old Republic tech to be found.
'Taxer Sundown' was a petty crook/crime lord who pretended to be a Jedi, employing a bunch of lightsaber-wielding security guards that he controlled with a mind-control device. He was caught and killed by Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan, but his headquarters on the Ten Miles Plateau should still be standing. Given that it collects solar energy, we might find it useful for all kinds of things (like an energy source to lower the upkeep on a Planetary Shield).
Ord Mantell is also an 'ORD' planet, so we might encounter some of the Jedi Aces and ExplorCorps members there.
