    An obscure planetoid deep in the Outer Rim, Polis Massa nonetheless occupied an important place in galactic history: The Skywalker twins were born there and given names by their mother Padmé Amidala before she died. And plans made in secret on Polis Massa would one day determine the fate of the galaxy.

History

The outpost on Polis Massa

A cataclysm destroyed the Outer Rim planet Polis Massa, leaving an asteroid field in its wake. After Order 66 all but wiped out the Jedi, this lonely outpost provided a brief respite for Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda before they went into exile.

Attended by medical droids, Padmé Amidala gave birth to her twins Luke and Leia on Polis Massa. She died and the twins were split up, with Obi-Wan taking Luke to Tatooine and Bail Organa returning home to Alderaan with Leia. A generation later, the children of Anakin Skywalker would play key roles in overthrowing the Empire.

  • After Order 66, Alderaan Senator Bail Organa spirited Yoda off Coruscant to Polis Massa. While there, Yoda heard the voice of Qui-Gon Jinn once again. The long-dead Jedi Master promised to teach Yoda how to become one with the Force and live on after death.

  • After their fateful encounter with Anakin Skywalker on Mustafar, Obi-Wan Kenobi arrived on Polis Massa with Padmé Amidala and immediately took the stricken Naboo senator to a medical bay.

  • Polis Massa’s medical droids said that while their instruments could find nothing physically wrong with Padmé, she was dying. They had to operate quickly to save the twins she was carrying.

  • Padmé died shortly after giving birth to Luke and Leia, swearing with her last words that there was still good in Anakin Skywalker. The twins were split up, with Luke going to Tatooine with Obi-Wan while Bail took Leia to Alderaan. Later, the children born on humble Polis Massa would change the fate of the galaxy.
