With J.R.R. Tolkien's high-fantasy world of Middle-earth being so far removed from our own, it's easy to get so caught up in what's on the map itself that we rarely even think about what's not on it. We know from The Lord of the Rings that Tolkien crafted endless stars in his legendarium, but are there other planets too? It's a question that most probably haven't pondered all too much over the years, but one that could easily lead to some theorizing about the far reaches of Tolkien's cosmos. Though extra-terrestrial life in Tolkien's universe has not been confirmed (you know, apart from all the spirit beings that come from the heavens), the author did note that other planets do exist in Eru Ilúvatar's created macrocosm, called Eä in his fictional world. Yes, there are other worlds out there, we just don't know much about them.
