Tatooine

An illustration of NASA's impression of a planet with two suns like Tatootine. Previously such planets were not considered possible. But more recent research by NASA shows this to be reality.

Tatooine is a desert planet in the fictional Star Wars universe. Anakin Skywalker was born on Tatooine, and his son Luke Skywalker grew up there.

Tatooine is a place with lots of criminals (including Jabba the Hutt), and slavery exists on this planet.
