To send Probe Droids to other worlds in the Galaxy, they are launched in a Hyperdrive Pod which can transport the droid thousands of light-years to its destination. These droids are deployed from Imperial Star Destroyers with a specific destination in mind. When it arrives at the destined world the pod enters the planet's atmosphere, applies emergency braking thrusters, and then the pod impacts on the planetary surface. Once on the surface, the pod releases the Probe Droid from its confines. Observing persons often mistake arriving pods as meteors. The nose of the pod contains the sensor array.
