- "Mos Eisley Spaceport. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious."
- ―Obi-Wan Kenobi, to Luke Skywalker
Mos Eisley (pronounced /mɑs aɪzliː/, moss izelee, (Listen )) was a large spaceport town on the planet Tatooine.
The spaceport, while lacking a primary landing facility, contained 362 hangars in which arrivals had to berth.[1]
History
Edit
The Mos Eisley Cantina was where Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi met Han Solo and Chewbacca, during their quest to get to Alderaan and deliver the Death Star plans to the Rebel Alliance. Imperial stormtroopers also searched Mos Eisley for R2-D2 and C-3PO, the holders of the missing Death Star plans.[2]
The city celebrated the destruction of the second Death Star and the death of the Emperor.[3]
