List of Firefly Planets and Moons

List Of Firefly Planets And Moons

This is a list of fictional planets and moons from the Firefly / Serenity fiction. Characters in the story refer colloquially to these planets as "worlds".

During the short television run of the Firefly series, it was not made clear whether the planets and moons depicted were located in one planetary system or many (however, creator Joss Whedon, as well as all licensed products, confirms that there is no faster-than-light travel in the Firefly universe). The opening narration of the film makes it clear that the planets and moons are in one system with "dozens of planets and hundreds of moons." This is supported by production documents published in Serenity: The Official Visual Companion.

In 2008, a double-sided poster called the Complete and Official Map of the Verse was produced, which depicts the system as consisting of one central star (the "White Sun") orbited by the "core worlds" and several other stars (each of which has its own planetary system).

    Why are all these dolls falling out of the sky?
    Was there a father?
    Or have the planets cut holes in their nets
    and let our childhood out,
    or are we the dolls themselves,
    born but never fed?

    How else should end this life of mine?
