While the cosmere has a wide array of planets, twelve are currently known that are relevant to the broader cosmere. Three of these planets—Ashyn, Braize, and Roshar—are in the same solar system.{{au ref|Roshar}}

=== Detailed Worlds ===
'''[[Nalthis]]''' is a world of color. Color is needed to fuel its magic system, [[Awakening]], and those with large amounts of [[Breath]] will enhance the colors around them and can see perfect shades of colors.{{book ref|wb|prologue}}
The [[Rosharan system]] consists of three planets of note. '''[[Ashyn]]''' was nearly destroyed in an apocalypse long ago, though a few cities remain floating in the atmosphere. Anyone with a disease there also gains a magical power.{{wob ref|12271}} '''[[Roshar]]''' is a planet with a [[highstorm|powerful storm]] that frequently blows across the continent where [[spren]] can cross into the Physical Realm.{{au ref|Roshar}} '''[[Braize]]''' is the prison of the [[Fused]] where the [[Herald]]s are tortured between [[Desolation]]s.{{book ref|sa3|38}}

'''[[Scadrial]]''' is the most technologically advanced planet and the most similar to Earth.{{au ref|Scadrial}}{{wob ref|6732}} Its [[Metallic Arts|three magic systems]] all use metal to store and access [[Investiture]].{{book ref|mb6|part=ars}}
The planet '''[[Taldain]]''' is tidally locked between two stars, a blue-white supergiant and a white dwarf. The side of the planet facing the former, [[Dayside]], is a vast desert where Investiture arrives from the light of the star. [[Darkside]] faces the white dwarf and is in perpetual twilight, and many things there fluoresce in ultraviolet light. Its [[Shard]], [[Autonomy]], keeps the planet isolated from the rest of the cosmere.{{au ref|Taldain}}

The [[Drominad system]] is home to three inhabited planets, the most of any solar system in the cosmere, all of which have water as a dominant feature. The innermost planet, '''[[First of the Sun]]''' has a [[perpendicularity]], though travel through it is incredibly dangerous.{{au ref|Drominad}}▼

'''[[Threnody]]''' is a planet split in two parts: the [[Fallen World]], which is under the control of an unknown entity called the [[Evil]] that is so dangerous that everyone left, and the [[Forests of Hell]], which is home to dangerous [[Cognitive Shadow]]s known as [[Shade]]s. Perpendicularities on Threnody are unstable and have a morbid origin.{{au ref|Threnody}}▼
'''[[Yolen]]''' is the original planet of humans and the location of the [[Shattering]].{{wob ref|5702}}{{wob ref|11602}} It has few inhabitants in the modern era and has been hidden from most of the people of the cosmere.{{wob ref|6545}}{{msh ref|3|2}}▼
Little is known about '''[[Obrodai]]''' and '''[[Vax]]'''.▼
