Hi, im a newbie to this forum, but i know alot about Star Wars. Im a Star Wars fanatic. anyways, i was wondering how the "Glowpoint" featured in the Corellian Trilogy work? i heard it was a miniature star. but it can't be, because a star that big wouldn't put out enough energy to power the repulsor. If the sun where as big as you (mass and size) you would but out more warmth that it would.------------------ he who laughs last....thinks slowest

I believe that it works because it is a micro-star of sorts. It could be a whitedwarf star or something along those lines although much smaller. Since there are micro-blackholes or singilarities out there in space there could also be micro-stars.If you like the Glowpoint in the Corellian trilogy read up on it in the Agents of Chaos Duology which is part of the New Jedi Order ------------------ God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the weaponry to make the difference.

Buh?Stars work, by the way, thanks to the intense pressures in their core. You don't get those pressures in a collection of hydrogen small enough to share the couch. ------------------ I will shout until they know what I mean. -- Neutral Milk Hotel **** Read three (three!) chapters of "Dirk Tungsten in...The Disappearing Planet"!

yeah, i like those Agents of Chaos books, a mini star is a good idea, and the people who made Centerpoint are technologically advanced aliens, but if they were so smart, where the hell are they now?------------------ he who laughs last....thinks slowest

Five. After that, you're a Junior Member until fifty. Then you're a Member until 250. After that, you're a Senior Member, and can make your status line say anything you like (within reason).------------------ Disclaimer: "All references to vices and of the supernatural contained in this game are for entertainment purposes only. _Over_The_Edge_ does not promote satanisim, belief in magic, drug use, violence, sexual deviation, body piercing, cynical attitudes toward the government, freedom of expression, or any other action or belief not condoned by the authorities." - `OverTheEdge'

(and up to 30 characters in length) Those aliens may have been advanced, but there are so many possibilities, most likely involving the Sith that could explain their disappearence. I haven't read that Trilogy yet, but I've read everything related to Thrawn, the NJO, X-Wing, Academy, and most of the modern stuff. Ewoks: The other white meat.

Yeah, be sure to remind everyone that it's 30 characters, Mr. 41-Character man.------------------ "This is such an amazingly minor complaint.

I thought it was 30... hmm it's longer then I guess. I know at another board with the hack it's only 30.

I just looked at my profile info and I was right. quote: Special Statusline As a Senior Member, you may modify your status line. Keep it clean, please. 30 characters, maximum.
So what gives?
