    Star Wars Star Wars Discussion Thread - LET THE PAST D-! Oh, wait, nevermind

    By Wookiepedia, lightsabers were also all Kyber crystals in the old EU material, but the term then was denoting the application and possibly some Force-related treatment process rather than the starting material.

    No, the difference in government structure very much can persist in the face of ceasing to be "bad" on any institutional level, but there's not really any present de jure top-down governments around today to point to so inspiration is lacking. You might see it start to feudalize so that the...

    Drag is only technically existent in space, so negligible that people talk more in terms of micrometeor damage than velocity lost to collision. Consequently, reaching ludicrously high speeds is a function of delta v, which is the overall amount of acceleration that the ship can undergo. As Star...
