Asteroid

"That wasn't a laser blast! Something hit us!"

- Han Solo

An asteroid was a solid object orbiting a star that was smaller than a planet. Asteroids could found in Asteroid fields, as well as around planets; Obi-Wan Kenobi and Jango Fett had a dogfight in an asteroid field above Geonosis. During the Galactic Civil War, Han Solo escaped from the Imperial Death Squadron by flying into the Hoth asteroid belt.

Asteroids could house facilities such as the Polis Massa medical facility. Space slugs were known to inhabit them.
