star wars and space

Post by spykid27 »

hello.
You know, one of the most popular lines in star wars is 'long time ago in a galaxy far, far, away...' (cue the star wars theme song). Now, I wonder what galaxy this is referring to... any ideas? Work your creativity please!

I read somewhere that they actually worked out which galaxy that was. But I don't have the link to that info handy so I'll look around and find it, and post the link here when I do find it.
