[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] Add to the confusion that Hyperspace seens MUCH slower in the original trilogy than in Ep II. I think Lucas revise Hyprspace a LOT (no suprise there) to make his stories flow better. Near as I can tell: Original Trilogy- Hyperspace is based on how well your engine can manipulate it (kinda like Warp) and thus the Falcon is "the fastest hunk of junk" while a Star Destroyer is "fast" but nowhere near as fast. The Falcon can probably do something equivalent of warp 7 (damn fast!) but planets still take between days and weeks to arrive at (training time for luke, dontcha know ;) ) Episode I-II: Even very small fighters like Obi-Wan's arrive at their destination almost immeadeately with no real time elapsing for either the pilots or the galaxy itself during the trip. (that's how Anikin and Amidalia got to Geonosis so damn quick) This means that Hyperspace is faster than Transwarp. It's also the only real way it can be a "Galactic" Empire. Any way to look at it, Star Wars capital ships move like narcoleptic snails when manuvering in a system (not FTL)and Trek ships do not. :D Apples and Oranges, in other words [/QB][/QUOTE]
