In 2015, the US space agency NASA published an article which stated that many of the newly discovered astronomical bodies possessed scientifically confirmed properties that are similar to planets in the fictional Star Wars universe. Kepler-452b, a rocky super-Earth-type planet, is said to be similar to the Star Wars planet Coruscant.
Planets from the Solar System were also included for comparison purposes. Discovered in 2006, OGLE-2005-BLG-390Lb is the coldest known exoplanet, and was nicknamed "Hoth" by NASA in reference to the planet from the Star Wars franchise. [1] All temperatures here are equilibrium temperatures.
