Beskrivelse

Could the science fiction of Star Wars be the actual science of tomorrow?-How close are we to creating robots that look and act like R2-D2 and C-3PO?-Can we access a 'force' with our minds to move objects and communicate telepathically with each other?-How might spaceships like the Millennium Falcon make the exhilarating jump into hyperspace?-What kind of environment could spawn a Wookiee?-Could a single blast from the Death Star destroy an entire planet?-Could light sabers possibly be built, and if so, how would they work?-Do Star Wars aliens look like 'real' aliens might?-What would living on a desert planet like Tatooine be like?-Why does Darth Vader require an artificial respirator?Discover the answers to these and many other fascinating questions of physics, astronomy, biology and more, as a noted scientist and Star Wars enthusiast explores The Science of Star Wars.
