This article covers the Canon version of this subject.  Click here for Wookieepedia's article on the Legends version of this subject. 

Stars were large, incandescent celestial bodies that were made of burning plasma and gas. In the night sky, remote stars looked like mere points of light. Stars that were the central body of a planetary system were referred to as suns. In some cases, a planetary system could contain several suns, as was the case around the planets of Tatooine[1] and Mon Cala.[2] A planet revolving around a star normally received light and warmth from it, although there were exceptions. Umbara was known as the "Shadow World" because the rays of its sun never completely reached the planet's surface, keeping it in perpetual darkness.[3]
