Jakku is a desert planet in the Star Wars universe, known for its harsh environment and vast stretches of sand. It plays a significant role in the sequel trilogy, particularly in The Force Awakens, where it serves as the home of the scavenger Rey. The planet is littered with the wreckage of ships from past battles, making it a hub for scavengers seeking valuable parts. The planet's desolation is contrasted by its rich history, as it was once a battleground during the Galactic Civil War. Jakku's significance extends beyond its landscape, as it symbolizes the remnants of conflict and the resilience of its inhabitants, who strive to survive in a challenging world.
