"...and furthermore, taken in conjunction with the fact that the crew of the Millennium Falcon can survive outside of the ship while on a large asteroid using no more than breathe masks[in Episode V], the clear existence of independent life within and possibly outside of said asteroid, the existence of audible sound as ships, fighters, and other objects pass while in 'space', and the brushing effect which pushes the spider droids off of Anakin's fighter [in Episode III], it is my considered opinion that there must be a constant and universally present low pressure atmosphere in existence throughout the galactic setting of the Star Wars films."
-Myself, exert from a forum post written Friday, June 24th, 2005 after having seen Episode III for the first time earlier that week. The second half of the geekiest summery sentence of the nerdiest paragraph of the most psudo-science riddled argument in which I have ever been involved in my life. On a side note though, I still think I'm right about that. Just assuming that George Lucas seriously thinks that space has air in it really does solve so many questions raised about his setting.
