The 501st's main objective was to retrieve the power core and return it safely to the LAAT/i transport waiting at the command post. The industrial planet was home to a special type of reactor core that both factions desperately wanted, as it was proven to be better than the cores used by the militaries up until that point.
The Battle of Mygeeto was the second mission of the 501st. This mission was often considered the final training mission of the 501st. The troopers performed well, capturing multiple command posts and successfully capturing an essential holocron for the battle. This battle was fought prior to the official formation of the unit, and was the first actual battle testing of the clone soldiers.
The 501st's first mission was the famed Battle of Geonosis, the start of the Clone Wars.
