What in the Star Wars movies qualifies as remotely plausible, according to our understanding of science, and what is pure fantasy? Writer Jeanne Cavelos brought her scientifically trained eye to this question in her 1999 book, The Science of Star Wars (St. Martin's Press). The following excerpts from The Science of Star Wars have been condensed by Scientific American:
Assuming any of this was actually possible we are talking about technology thousands of years beyond what we can comprehend now. It would either take a massive jump in our abilities OR some alien influence for us to even approach the science of star wars anytime in the next few hundreds (or more) years in my opinion
I think they had a show like this on the History channel after the last episode came out in theatres. It was cool to watch. Most of the stuff was explainable, atleast it was explainable with future hypothetical technology.
