Though it’s a naturally occurring substance, Carbonite had a near-mystical position in the galaxy as one of the few substances that could imprison Jedi due to the density of the metal alloy and the calming immersion of being Carbon-frozen. In old Star Wars books, the frames were shown to include life sign monitors to check on their inhabitants, power connectors, Repulsorlift projectors, Carbonite Flux monitors, and an element to thaw the Carbonite when needed. You can learn a little more about how Carbonite is formed and contained by looking at the old pre-Disney descriptions of the Carbonite blocks and the rectangular metal frames in which they were housed. In the now non-canon Legends stories, Carbonite could be sourced in the Empress Tetra system, which had an abundance of mines filled with the precious entity, creating a mining stronghold in the galactic region. It can be found around the planet Bespin, which might be why this was the first place we ever saw a Carbon Freezing plant. One of the best known ways it can be processed is with Tibanna gas, which you might remember Luke Skywalker using to battle his father. We do know that it is a liquid that can, like many liquids, be turned into a solid if frozen and that can, when combined with other gases, be used to transport people or goods. In the post-Disney Star Wars canon, not much is known about Carbonite.

It was with those chilling words that the world was introduced to the strange and terrifying form of high-tech science fiction imprisonment in a galaxy far, far away.
