The '''Physical Realm''' is the realm of existence in the [[cosmere]] that contains what is perceivable to the physical senses.{{tes ref|12}} Of the three [[Realmatic Theory|Realms]], it is the most readily understood, as it behaves in much the same way as our universe does.
 
Most of the [[Cosmere#Bibliography_of_the_Cosmere|cosmere stories]] so far take place almost exclusively in the Physical Realm. These stories are set on planets orbiting stars that are part of a small cluster within a dwarf galaxy.{{wob ref|1244}}{{17swob ref|post|28769711459}}
 
This article lists all the known celestial bodies in the cosmere as they appear in the Physical Realm, including planets, stars and moons.

The second planet from the sun, Sel wasis an Earth-like Shardworldplanet inhabited by humans and artificially created beings called [[Seonseon]]s and [[Skazeskaze]].
