Coruscant
Coruscant is the capital planet in the Star Wars universe—a world entirely covered by city, serving as the seat of galactic government.
The name derives from the English adjective coruscant, meaning sparkling or glittering, which describes the planet's appearance from space: an endless grid of lights.
Outside Star Wars contexts, the word is rarely encountered.
