light

figured this is an appropriate place to post this.
I was REally thiking the other night....when the ships enter hyperspace..lightspeed, whatever. What's the principle?...i know that they're decomposed into wightless particles, fotons and are able to travell lightspeed to the designated location. I fail to explain that tunnel they're going through...well...maybe it has something to do with that space distorsion theory.
And the a gain..what about the term 'light years' measuring distances?....

I like the way you know how hyperspace in SW works! It's a mad thing with no real logic behind it.

But what about light years used as a distance?

I know what you meant, I just do not know what you want to know about it.

by my information..light years distance is a distance wich would take years of travelling with light speed. Then how does hyperspace work considering it's travelling with lightspeed at great distances and does not spend years on the way.

Hyperspace in Star Wars is faster than light, much faster. Like I say, I have no idea why you are trying to attach any science to it.

it's like that solar sailer thing we talked about....i'm trying to find rational explanationsbig grin
And then..there's that theory i've heard again, that no known object travells faster than lightspeed.

No object CAN travel faster than Lightspeed. Light speed is actually the speed limit for the universe.

Hence any hyperspace-like thing is normally cheating- e.g. compressing space or using wormholes or whatever. Or going into some freaky dimension where our laws do not apply. Or using the power of the Gods to move you. Or riding on the back of the magic cookies. Each explanation is as good as the other, frankly, as it is all pure fantasy.

You know, I've not heard that "magic cookie" thing until now, but if you think on it enough, THAT actually DOES make sense.
