The Star Wars Galaxy Has Been Mapped
Posted at 10:12 AM Jan 14, 2009
Damn. I'd love to make fun of someone who took the time to layout all of Star Wars' planets and sectors into one galaxy, but honestly, I'm way too impressed. I've spent the last hour just looking for all the planets I know, and being somewhat relieved that there's many I don't. Click on the pic to see it full-size. Tatooine is in the bottom-middle, and not the center of the galaxy, in case you're wondering. I know! I was surprised too! (Via Gizmodo)

Awww, full-size. I was hoping it was life-size.
Posted 01/14/2009 at 07:57:30 AMThis looks like an update of the map that was in the New Jedi Order Hardbacks a while ago - I stopped bothering about them when they advanced into double-figures and showed no sign of stopping. There's only so much EU a man should be forced to take. Nice Screensaver though.......
Posted 01/14/2009 at 08:04:39 AMhasn't this been done already? Just without a picture of a galaxy behind the planets. I had a poster that was a similar map of star wars planets that was a comic-con intl freebie.
Posted 01/14/2009 at 08:54:15 AMMan, brutha Tarkin wasnt kidding. Dantooine IS far to remote to have made an effective demonstration.
Posted 01/14/2009 at 08:57:44 AMAwesome! more cool names for my D&D campaign!
Posted 01/14/2009 at 09:25:32 AMWhat are the colored lines? Freeways? So remote through they are, Tatooine and Dagobah are just off the I-5 and the 405 respectively? "Sure, let's head on over to Dagobah, but I'm stopping for a Coke at the AM/PM before we hit the freeway..."
Posted 01/14/2009 at 09:35:03 AMThis map looks pretty familiar, actually; i'm not so sure it's so new.
Posted 01/14/2009 at 11:05:23 AMThis map has been on Wookieepedia for a long time.
Posted 01/14/2009 at 12:29:13 PMI know this doesn't show the galaxy in three dimensions, but Tatooine totally isn't on the way from Naboo to Coruscant. They should have stopped at M'Haeli, there's a Starbucks there.
And Tatooine, Kamino and Geonosis are all right next to each other? The main droid factory, the main clone-producing facility and the place Obi-Wan decided to hide out with Luke are all in the same sector? I mean, I know they're all supposed to be pretty off-the-beaten-path, but I didn't expect them to all be off of the SAME SECTION of path. I guess that explains how the Clone Army rescued Anakin and Padme from the Geonosian arena in the nick of time.

Posted 01/14/2009 at 07:03:37 PMAngelo, follow the blue line down. Hoth is towards the end on the left.
Posted 01/14/2009 at 09:53:21 PMHey, I can't see Andowyn in the Kathol System.
Posted 01/14/2009 at 10:38:25 PMI can't seem to find Kashyyyk, it's like the only planet I know, afterall who doesn't know where Wookies live? Apparently me...
