Lusaanda was first mentioned in the 1993 book Monsters and Aliens from George Lucas, a publication that combines creature designs and photographs from various projects of George Lucas, creator of the Star Wars franchise, with original text by Bob Carrau. In the book, Lusaanda was introduced as a planet that was home to Skreen, an alien technical director for the Manifold Mollusk Matrix and Matrimony Association. According to Monsters and Aliens from George Lucas, Skreen at one point authored the work "Destiny Days," which was a fictional account of true events that had occurred on Lusaanda after Skreen's death.
Lucasfilm employee Leland Chee, who maintains the Holocron continuity database, has indicated that information contained in Monsters and Aliens from George Lucas is non-canonical with respect to the Star Wars Legends continuity. However, Jason Fry, co-author of the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, has stated that the star systems listed in the book's Appendix section are named after the most prominent planets or celestial bodies located in those systems. This article therefore considers the existence of Lusaanda to be canonical with respect to the Legends continuity. The Essential Atlas placed the Lusaanda system, and therefore Lusaanda, in grid square O-4.
