Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

A planetary shield, commonly known as a planetary deflector shield (or defense grid), was a large scale deflector shield designed to protect an entire planet from bombardment, falling debris, or other hazards. The term planetary shield may also have been used for a large scale shield protecting a moon such as Nar Shaddaa.
