Starlog was a magazine dedicated to science-fiction film and television that ran for 374 issues, from August 1976 to April 2009. Initially conceived as a magazine dedicated to Star Trek, its scope expanded to include any and all science-fiction on film and television. The magazine featured extensive coverage of the Star Wars franchise. The magazine also published Starlog Yearbook.
Although not a licensed Lucasfilm publication, Starlog included several articles contributed by individuals involved in the production of official Star Wars projects, such as the Star Tours ride at Disneyland and the Ewoks television series. Some of this content introduced exclusive in-universe information with regards to Star Wars Legends canon.
The magazine's parent company, Starlog Communications International, Inc. also published The Official Star Wars Technical Journal series.
