Typhon was a planet situated within range of the Koprulu Sector. It was destroyed in 2504 when its sun went supernova.

History

Typhon XI was considered remote by terrans and its sparse mineral deposits made it a poor candidate for colonization. Nonetheless, a sizable Tal'darim force was present on the world.

In 2504, the local star was about to go supernova. Raynor's Raiders were forced to travel there to retrieve another component of the xel'naga device guarded by the Tal'darim. The fires started by the impending stellar catastrophe forced the Raiders to continually relocate their base, but they managed to escape with the artifact before the supernova hit them.
