Mara Jade married Luke Skywalker eventually. So in view of that, we assume that they are about the same age or at least not too far apart in age.
Luke met Mara who tried to killed him initially as Luke killed the emperor.
Mara was the Emperor's Hand. She could not have joined during the era of Episode I to III as she would have been too young.
It was only in Episode VI that Luke faced the Emperor and defeated him with the help of his father.
So we can guess that Mara probably become the Emperor's hand around the time of Episode IV or V.
Does this sound logical?
Has anyone work out the time duration in no. of years between each episodes?
