Great Rift

The Great Rift was an astrographic feature of the galaxy in the first three drafts of the Star Wars script. It formed one of the borders of the Outlands (which eventually was renamed the Outer Rim) along with the "celestial equator".

In the third draft of the script, the Rebel stronghold at Yavin 4 is located in the Great Rift, and it is implied that Utapau is as well. Yavin was located in the Forbidden Systems in the first draft.

The Great Rift was deleted in the fourth draft.
