As was the case with all apparent products of Rakatan dark side energy engineering, the Star Forge managed to survive several tens of thousands of years idling and without an operational crew by relying on its built-in automated repair systems. This trait was replicated in certain artifacts, such as the Star Maps. The Rakatan Builders destroyed the Star Maps after the completion of the Star Forge, but these slowly repaired themselves with the Star Forge's technology. While the data in each one was incomplete by the time the reformed Revan discovered them, their combined information was enough to reveal the location of the Star Forge.
As an artifact of the dark side, the Star Forge corrupted those who used it, feeding its desire for death. Ajunta Pall hinted that it may have been known to, and used by, the early Sith. After the Mandalorian Wars, it came into the service of Revan and Malak, who had been powerful and honorable Jedi Knights until discovering the Star Maps leading to the location of the ancient dark space station, resulting thus to the rebirth of the Sith.
Reprogrammed, Revan was ordered to rediscover the location of the Forge, while it was under Malak's control who used it to strengthen the Sith fleet with a massive number of ships.
While the First Star Forge was destoryed in the Jedi Civil War, the second phase verision the Rakata had been working on was still together tho lacking many key features, such as a reactor core.
It lay in wait in the Nirauan System covered in layers of frozen particles, until it was found by Imperal Knight Jobe Flagg in 225ABY. At this time in Imperal History, the Empire had fallen after two major galactic wars against the Galactic Alliance. The Emperor was Redav Htrad. The Star Forge was the blessing the Empire needed. Imperial Scientists got to work fortifiying the Star Forge, adding the most advanced weapons and defence systems the Imperial Remenant and Chiss Ascendancy had to offer.
By 259ABY the Starforge produced the Eclipse class star destoryer The Spector of Oblivion.
