Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope.

"This will be a day long remembered."
―Darth Vader[1]

A day was a unit of time on the Galactic Standard Calendar. One day was the amount of time it took for a planet to make one complete rotation on its polar axis. Twenty-four hours was considered to be a standard day.[2]

The length of a day varied between planets. The length of day for most terrestrial planets not subjected to tidal locking was in the range of 18 to 36 standard hours. Tide-locked planets did not have days. Satellite planets - moons orbiting a gas giant - were almost always tide-locked to the gas giant they orbited. Satellites may have days several dozen hours long (as long as it takes the satellite to orbit the gas giant).[3]

Warning: The following section is non-canon within the Star Wars Legends continuity. It contains information explicitly released under the Infinities brand and/or confirmed to be non-canon by the author or Lucasfilm. Information exclusive to this section did not happen in the "proper" Star Wars Legends continuity.

During Roan Novachez's time at the Jedi academy on Coruscant, the days of the week were organized as Monoday, Duoday, Triday, Quadday, Pentaday, Hexaday and Heptaday.

Non-canon information ends here.

Behind the scenes

The length of the standard day is derived from the length of one Earth day.

Appearances

Since a day is a unit of time and all Star Wars novels, journals, comics, guides, and role-playing games have some interval of elapsed time, day is indirectly mentioned in almost every Star Wars source.

The following is a list of appearances of day when it is used in dialogue; or when it is specifically mentioned or defined:

Non-canonical appearances

I find your lack of sources disturbing.

This article needs to be provided with more sources and/or appearances to conform to a higher standard of article quality.
