'''K7-75''' was a sinkhole on the planet [[Caligula (Hive World)|Caligula]], located around forty kilometres north-northeast of [[Nero Hive]].{{Fn|1}}
One of many such depressions in the surface of [[Caligula]], K7-75 was around a kilometre deep and with an eight-kilometre radius. The sinkhole was large enough to sustain its own isolated ecosystem, a forest with fungoid trees, which were farmed by the [[Imperial]] settlers that lived nearby before the forces of [[Chaos]] overran the [[Sabbat Worlds]].{{Fn|1}}
In the [[Sabbat Worlds Crusade]], Imperial military forces launched an assault to retake Caligula. As the [[Astra Militarum]] [[troop-ship]]s were descending on Caligula, a [[Psyker|psychic storm]] erupted over Nero Hive which brought down a number of vessels and prevented reinforcements from landing. One troop-ship carrying elements of the [[Tanith First and Only]], including [[Colonel-Commissar]] [[Ibram Gaunt]] and [[Major]] [[Elim Rawne]], crash-landed in K7-75 and, although the survivors were able to make it off Caligula, they were effectively unable to contribute to the battles in Nero.{{Fn|1}}
