Desert

"What a desolate place this is."

- C-3PO, upon arrival on Tatooine

Deserts were planetary regions covered almost completely in sand that received little precipitation. They were dry, desolate, and often harsh regions. On Tatooine, sandstorms proved dangerous to local populations, and some citizens worked as moisture farmers to pump moisture from beneath the desert floor. The planet Jakku also contained a desert. Another example of a desert planet is Er'Kit. While Tatooine and Jakku have beige sand, Er'kit has red sand.
