The galaxy of Star Wars is full of incredible and awe-inspiring locations, and the people behind this wildly influential franchise have made sure to take us to plenty of them. We've seen plenty of different environments across the universe explored over the years, with the various movies, television shows, video games, and comics giving fans plenty of opportunities to see something new. Some of the planets have become cultural touchstones in their own right, to the point where people who have never actually seen the movies can understand the reference to the original films.
Others are important to the overall mythology of the series, but have made few actual appearances outside of the television shows. Many of them have grown with the technology of the evolving universe, and others remain mystical connections to the deep lore of the series. Some of these planets can be defined by their major geographical aspect, and others prove to be surprisingly varied and layered over the years. Regardless, only someone attuned with the Force (or at least is a really committed Star Wars fan) could have the kind of knowledge to let them identify all the different places we've seen explored in these stories.
