The Battle of Klendathu, also known as The First Battle of Klendathu, Operation Bughouse, or Operation Madhouse, was a military engagement in the novel and movie Starship Troopers.
It was the first battle of the Bug War between the Terran Federation (the United Citizen Federation in the film) and the Arachnids of Klendathu.
The Battle of Klendathu bears a resemblance to the World War II raid by Canadian forces on Dieppe, France, an operation which went wrong due to stronger German resistance than expected.

 BMN Review: Starship Troopers (1997)
It is not until this point that the action begins, when oversized bugs from the planet Klendathu send a gigantic asteroid hurtling through space so that it slams into the Earth and destroys Buenos Aires.
Klendathu is shown on a map to be entirely on the opposite side of the galaxy.
Even if the asteroid were traveling at the speed of light, it would take tens of millions of years to reach Earth, and that would be assuming that Earth would even sit still for that duration of time so that it could be hit by the asteroid when it arrived.

 DVD Authority | DVD Review of "Roughnecks: The Starship Troopers Chronicles- The Klendathu Campaign"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Of course, Klendathu is the home world of the bugs and that means impossible odds for the Roughnecks.
The landscape is certain to be crawling with insects of all varieties, in addition to being fortified against their invasion, so the odds of success are simply not on their side.
The Klendathu Campaign is a great arc in all respects, with some nice plot twists, tons of cool visuals, and of course, some of the best battle scenes we've seen to this point in the series.

In "The Klendathu Campaign," Rico and his fеllоw Troopers are confronted with а disturbing turn of events when their leader Lieutenant Zаndеr is infected with a bug virus and is transformed intо a super-strong half-human/half-bug mutant.
Best of all, in spite of this being "juvenile" action (as Неinlеin originally planned to market his novel), the Klendathu Campaign has more dерth of character, gung-ho humor and just plain good old-fashioned story-telling charm than anyone would еvеr expect from a CGI "cartoon".
It's missing from both the Klendathu campaign and the Homefront campaign DVD's.

 Klendathu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the fictional universe of the novel and movie Starship Troopers, Klendathu is the homeworld of the Arachnids.
While Klendathu's terrain is never described in the Robert A. Heinlein novel, the movie presents Klendathu as an arid desert world (along with every other planet save Terra).
Also in the movie there are no structures on the planet (perhaps to add to the portrayal of the Bugs as mindless brain-eaters); however in the book it is made apparent that there is a capital city somewhere on the planet.

 FED NET - ESSAY
This is followed a section titled "Why We Fight," an explanation of where the meteors come from, namely the bug planet Klendathu, whose gravitational field produces "a limitless supply of bug meteors." The bugs use plasma to shoot the meteors out of orbit and toward Earth.
Suddenly, there is an interruption in the broadcast and the announcer says, "We break net now to take you live to the invasion of Klendathu." We see a reporter declaring, "It's an UGLY planet, a BUG planet..." He doesn't get to finish his sentence, since a giant bug rips him in half.
A BUG planet!" This sentiment was echoed by the announcer in Victory At Sea, who declares that "...in 1942 Guadalcanal was wild jungle, 90 miles of festering malaria and rainforest, bypassed for centuries by history, forgotten by man." The climate was degraded, and the enemy was vilified.

In an interesting move, despite the fact that the Starship Troopers saga starts with planet Klendathu, it's the next-to-last stop on the campaign tour of the universe we're taking with our heavily armed pals, the Roughnecks.
As this volume begins (editing the original television episodes 26-30 into a feature-length film), the Roughnecks are headed to Klendathu for the final push.
These dark events lead up to the even darker times ahead on the surface of Klendathu, where their encounter with Zander turns out to be only the beginning of a terrible new phase in the war effort.
