Planet (Earth-2042)



"Well, if there's a bright center of the universe, you're on the planet that it's farthest from."

- Luke Skywalker, to C-3PO

A planet, often called a world, is a large celestial body in orbit around a star. Planets often have smaller bodies called moons that can be in orbit around the planet. Many planets are habitable, meaning they are suitable for sentient beings to live on. There are three known types of planets: terrestrial planets, aquatic planets and gas giants. Although gas giants are generally uninhabitable, some species evolved to be able to survive in them, and when not, floating constructs such as Cloud City can be built if the planet had a habitable layer. A group of planets, moons, and asteroids orbiting around a star are collectively called a star system. The galaxy is home to thousands of star systems. Although planets usually orbit only one sun, some, such as Tatooine and Gatalenta, are located in systems that orbited multiple. Certain planets are strong with the Force, such as Dathomir.
