Star Wars, actually flown in space - Blu-ray Forum

groovyone · 12-15-2007, 05:06 AM

For those who hadn't heard, on the previous shuttle mission STS-120, one of the lightsabers from Star Wars was actually sent into space and is now on display at Space Center Houston. Also there is Lukes cape from Jedi, and a fan-built X-Wing fighter. I wish I had my polarizer to reduce the glare on the cape case.

R2 moved, lit up and made the movie sounds too.

I wonder if they can build me a working one, I'd buy it, no matter what the cost in fake money.

Does a Home Theater/Shrine to Blu-Ray count? If so, I'm in trouble.
