CorelliaEdit

" As a consequence, it does not share its orbital region with any other bodies of significant size."
―This article

Doesn't the Corellia system have five planets in a habitable region, and don't Talus and Tralus have almost the same orbit? {{SUBST:User:C3PO the Dragon Slayer/sig}}

  • I believe that you are correct. Using Kepler's Third Law of Planetary Motion and the lengths of the years of the planets as given on their respective articles Corellia orbits at 0.933 AU (Earth is 1.00 AU from the Sun), Selonia at 0.981 AU, while Drall, Talus, and Tralus orbit at 1.05 AU. Also, I believe that Talus and Tralus orbit each other as well as Corell. This would mean that according to the International Astronomical Union's definition of a planet all of the Five Brothers would be classified as "dwarf planets" because they have not cleared the neighborhood of their orbits, and none of them gravitationally dominates the others.MasterSearcy 03:40, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

Image Edit

Wouldn't Coruscant be a better Image to represent this Artical? Valin "Tnu" "Shido" Suul 22:55, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Actually, I would think that a terrestrial planet like Naboo would be better, since they're far more common.Darth Ceratis 01:05, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Yes, a more natural planet than Coruscant would be best. Mustafar is a good choice in that respect, since it is a young, natural world with only a few settlements or organic-made structures - \\Captain Kwenn// Ahoy! 17:57, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, I found a very nice photo of Coruscant: [[1]]*

MygeetoEdit

I could be severely mistaken, but I don't believe Mygeeto is a city world, as it is referred to here. It has areas, but it isn't completely covered. Perhaps we should mention another world, like Eriadu or something. Likewise, I wouldn't consider Felucia a rainforest world at all: it's just a weird one.Darth Ceratis 01:10, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Kessel Edit

"...had sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumed a nearly round shape..."

I realize that this is part of the current astronomical defintion on our earth, but it doesn't seem to be part of the definition in the SW universe. Kessel is referred to as a planet, yet it clearly does not satisfy this requirement. Darthmix 22:19, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Why is This Article Written in Past Tense? Edit

Has anyone noticed this? It's all in past tense, should we fix that?

Appearances? Edit

So, this article lacks of appearances? I mean: in almost ALL comics, videogames and books someone travels to some planet. Shouls we mention everything? Couldn't we just say planets appear in "almost every Star Wars production"? Kael Rayne 19:58, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

  • I Agree, because a Planet appears in evrything in Star Wars so, we should add the rest if the appearnces. T-888 16:09, January 11, 2010 (UTC)
