Desert

"What a desolate place this is."

- C-3PO, upon arrival on Tatooine

Deserts were planetary regions covered almost completely by sparse terrain 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 was Er'Kit. While Tatooine and Jakku had golden tan sand, Er'kit had red sand.
