[No title]
I find the scene from ROTJ Special Edition of the celebration on Coruscant odd. I can only think that the fireworks and celebration was amongst those who opposed the Emperor, but I imagine that their open defiance on Coruscant would have been met with swift retribution by the still in-power Imperial forces. --SparqMan 14:14, 5 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * Maybe they felt that the Imperials would be morally destroyed along with the Emperor. And maybe they were dealt with. -- Riffsyphon1024 14:25, 5 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * They were. Isard promptly ordered their executions (Mara Jade: By the Emperor's Hand).  Nonetheless, it was an important milestone - an anti-Imperial protest at the very heart of the Empire.  You wouldn't have seen any such thing if the Emperor hadn't died.  jSarek 21:28, 5 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * Yay, now I can think of their happy fates every time watch the ending to Return of the Jedi (or maybe I can just pretend the Special Edition never added it in) -lalala_la
 * Ah, excellent. I haven't read that comic, but I'm glad it was covered in continuity. --SparqMan 01:35, 6 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * Its also mentioned in one of the X-Wing novels (Wraith Squadron?). A few minutes after that scene the Stormtroopers were sent in...
 * Iron Fist, actually. The Stormtroopers just went in and started shooting. SFH 14:21, 29 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Main Image
How about this as the new Main Image:

I think the present one is a bit blurry/raw, but I dunno, what do you think? --Sauron18 23:43, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
 * So, unless anyone doesn't want to, I'll be changing it in a bit :)--Sauron18 07:18, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Actually, I think the last one was more colorful - this new pic seemes really bleak and depressing, so I think we should revert it back to the last picture.


 * Can we please?--Herbsewell 19:29, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Coruscant citizens rejoicing after the death of the Emporer
In the 1997 Special Edition version of RotJ, the citizens of Coruscant rejoice after the Battle of Endor. I doubt they would dare. Just because the Emporer died and the Imperial fleet fled does not mean that Coruscant would be captured.

In fact, I think the scene directly conflicts with events from the X-Wing series.--Will 07:37, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It's reconciled - it's a small scale revolt put down by Isard. It's mentioned in the article. QuentinGeorge 07:45, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

It did not look that "small" on screen. In fact, it looked to be planet-wide.Will 08:38, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It didn't look planet-wide. You only see a small part of the planet. It, looked pretty big, but Coruscant is a big place. -LtNOWIS 09:20, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

With big fireworks shows and fighters overhead? Sounds more like a planned show.
 * That was only the Senate District that was shown in rejoice. The other areas like the Works may not have cared. -- Riffsyphon1024 04:49, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Coruscant suns
If you look at the image of people partying after palpatine's death from ROTJ. You can see 2 suns. Does coruscant have 2 suns?
 * No, Coruscant only has one sun, as confirmed by Coruscant and the Core Worlds. -- Riffsyphon1024 04:50, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Additionally, that shot is during the night hours, so those multiple objects are moons or fireworks. -- Riffsyphon1024 07:13, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Coruscant has too moons, that's what those are Jondon Cenobi 03:40, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually, it has 4. -- Darth Phonebook  01:14, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

"Coruscant did not naturally have a climate suitable for Humans"
If Coruscant is the human homeworld, how can it not be suited for them? Thanos6 12:07, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
 * It is not the homeworld, in any case the planet is a city, its been changed by species to suit them if you read the full part of that sentence orbital mirrors were used to heat the planet up.Jedi Dude 12:09, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I did, and if you read the first section of the History section, or the NEC, it mentions Coruscant as the probable homeworld. Thanos6 12:25, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes i have, and probable means nothing, its speculation so doesn't really count tbh. Jedi Dude 13:14, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Did'nt Coruscant have a Weather Damper System to make the City Areas Warmer?
 * 1) 24.215.174.33
 * You mean cooler. With "Greenhouse lighting, hydroponic reticulation, gas exchange, plus the actual energy consumption of the civilization, that's at least 10^18 watts of waste heat. The surface should be hotter than boiling water, and nearly hot enough to melt lead." Quote from Irregular Webcomic!--Herbsewell 13:51, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

An Ecumenopolis by 100,000BBY?
How could Coruscant have been an ecumenopolis from 100,000 BBY onward? They didn't even have superluminal travel until the Infinite Empire came in 30,000BBY---how did they feed a an entire planet covered in cities for 70,000 years? Did they grow food elsewhere inside the star system?
 * Was it covered in cities back then? If they were then it's ludicrous and impossible.  Now that the entire planet is one city, it would be impossible to transport enough food for the entire populous.--Herbsewell 01:42, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * You might want to take up to the IRC.--Herbsewell 01:44, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Food?
Where do they get their food?--Herbsewell 13:35, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I believe much of it is shipped from off planet. I'm sure there were a few buildings out of that cityscape that at least had some food processing areas (greenhouses, indoor animal nursuries, farms, etc.). Jorrel Fraajic 15:05, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Well I mean since the idea of Coruscant is impractical it doesn't really matter. There's no way they could get enough food.--Herbsewell 20:47, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * You have a point in the impracticallity (the concept of a planet without plants is utterly horrifying to me) but you may also be forgetting just how large the Galaxy is, and how many planets are devoted to agricultural needs. -- SFH 20:49, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * No, it's just how many transports you would need. Food just isn't the only thing that makes the planet impossible--Herbsewell 21:02, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, I suppose one would need a large fleet, and there are preservability issues as well...Lets just agree that its a fictional universe where somethings are politely left out. -- SFH 21:04, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Yinchorri Uprising
The Yinchorri Uprising should be mentioned in this article! ! Raid on the Jedi Temple (Yinchorri Uprising) !
 * Well, that was an attack on the Jedi Temple itself, not Coruscant as a whole. Jorrel Fraajic 15:50, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Theme Music
Can anyone confirm that the 'Coruscant' theme in the films is not in fact by Williams, and is from another source (in this case, the Shadows of the Empire soundtrack)? It just seems false to me, however I cannot confirm or deny it as I don't have the Shadows of the Empire soundtrack. Melda 16:09, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
