Jay 🆘Are the humans in Star Wars — Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, etc. — biologically related to us?
Yes
No
Poll ended at .
Nils Pascal Illenseer@jsit My assumption is “No” and the reasoning is the movies start with “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away….”. Practically it is not really possible to be biologically related. 🤷🏻♂️
@illenseer Same here
Jeff Forcier@jsit @illenseer "we are an offshoot of the Star Wars humans” implies /inter/-galactic travel, which has not been shown to exist in SW canon.
Regardless: distance-wise, on average, if a galaxy takes a couple weeks to cross end-to-end (rough derivation from poorly specified canonical travel times) then intergalactic travel would take a year and a half or more.
On top of that: hyperspace navigation in SW requires “nav data”, which is surely lacking in intergalactic space!
@bitprophet Theirs is not the Milky Way?
@jsit I'm not sure how else we're supposed to interpret “in a galaxy far away” other than "not the milky way" right?
@bitprophet Haha oh of course right
