Jovan Diaz yes. I read somewhere that it is wayyyyyy in the future and waaaay far away. Told by R2-D2. I was wondering why this wasn't shown here

[@takacsgyorgy834]

To prove this theory, the whole "long time ago in a galaxy far-far away" comes from the Chronicles of the Whill, as they told the story of the rebellion in the future. So, the movies do not take place in our past, it's the past of the Whills.

[@GrimmShadowsII]

But do the whill still exist? I mean that's from an early draft of a new hope so whos to say in all the rewrites and retcons they still exist.

[@takacsgyorgy834]

We will see. They were mentioned in Rogue One, so even after all those rewrites, there is a new hope :)

[@ConcerninglyWiseAlligator]

I would think it took place in another galaxy a long time ago. And that a group of explorers went missing and ended up on earth. I think that the hyperspace anomaly may be the cause for this.

[@jjcvip]

My theory is that it actually took place way in the future. The a long time ago in a galaxy far far away is said from a more advanced race(the whilis). They are documenting what happened and it's being told after the events took place. A band of humans, probably exiled or refugees flew on a sleeper ship before landing on coruscant.

[@AbandonedVoid]

I kind of like that idea if it weren't for the fact Star Wars technology is extremely different from even modern technology. Look at how awful their computers are and the lack of security cameras anywhere. There doesn't seem to be an internet, really, either. They have a different path of technological development in canon, too.

[@websterri]

@Thelondonbadger no doesnt matter. Everything in star wars is super bulky and low tech. Totally opposite of what our future tech would look like

[@websterri]

@Thelondonbadger well if you had any clue what you were talking about, but no. That is not the same thing at all. Plus I dont think you have seen the inside of modern planes/helicopters. As I'm a pilot and an engineer I can tell you that cars are not bulkier and planes are not flown with those switches. Those switches you see are not the controls, they are backup systems and breakers in case of electrical failure. They are what are used to start the powerplant etc. I dont think people understand the amount of systems that are all running at once while a plane is flying. All of that is mostly in the main monitors it is amazingly high tech.

[@websterri]

@Thelondonbadger ...... no that's not it at all. How can I simplify this. Cars are barely bigger then the model t. Yet the engine is 15X more powerful and incredibly efficient by comparison. The reason its bigger has nothing to do with technology and everything to do with market conditions. Guess what? Cars are not motorized carriages anymore. They have an inside that can sit 4 or 6 or 8 on not a wooden bench. What you are failing to understand is, well many things.

[@websterri]

@Thelondonbadger You really dont get it do you? Server farms and radio bunkers have a very very thin copper sheet in the foundation that provides protection from everything, it's called a faraday cage. You couldnt fry anything with magnetic fields. Ships would have a hull, even the smallest ships would have at least that much shielding, and not for the electrical systems, for the humans! Replacing parts is normal for any system that has nothing to do with anything. You are so held up on SW when our space tech would be NOTHING like that at all!

[@ChaosToRule]

What if Star Wars takes place in the Andromeda Galaxy? No matter how you twist it, that will be far far away.

[@ChaosToRule]

To my knowledge Andromeda is only visible from the southern hemisphere. If you look up on a starry night, you can see the light from the center of our galaxy, light that is around 36.000 years old when we see it. Fascinating. So maybe it does take place in Andromeda. I mean if the humans are still from earth or our ancestors came from another planet as we see in Prometheus, then I think Andromeda is plausible?

I remember as a kid after seeing Empire with my dad asking him "what do think Yoda is? A troll, an elf, a goblin etc?" He said "Well maybe he's a human and that's what a human would look like living that long. Remember he said 'when 900 yrs YOU will be, look as good YOU will not.'" That stuck with me all my life and actually made it in my minds canon. Even more strange, a few yrs ago I learned that Yoda is the only SW character without an identified race. Maybe he's human afterall.

[@GenerationTech]

haha there's headcanon and then there are things that are personal canon who can say what's more real to an individual

[@typhusthenewbie1561]

My personal canon is that the imperium of man exists alongside with the galactic empire, but is only aware of their existence once the galactic empire tried to move their settlings to a new galaxy. After that they managed to scavenge the hyperdrives since their warp projectors couldn't cross galaxies.

[@iilhares]

I find this somewhat amusing because of Doctor Who. When the Master forces the doctor (Tennant) to live beyond his 'proper' lifespan, he becomes a wizened little troll looking character. Not quite a Yoda (more like a house elf from Harry Potter, really) but far from his traditional humanoid form.

[@rucebajer9361]

If you look around on the wiki s. That is how the near humans came to be. Pantorans for example. Maybe twileks too. But some species such as the Duros and the neimodians have their own evolutionary backgrounds. They went to other planets before hyperdrives in sleeper ships that took thousands of years to reach their destination. (Shorter or longer). When they got here they changed over time. The humans did spread throughout the galaxy like modern day races but more pronounced and different due to the separation for so long.

[@Reyma777]

Ruce Bajer Pantorans, Chiss, Zabrak, Twi Leks, and a several other species are near-human related to baseline human beings.

Celestials come to recruit humans and other species, later the Rakatans enslave them and other species. Rakatan empire eventually falls, Republic and Jedi order eventually founded.

That seems way more likely if starwars is in another galaxy in the distant past.

Set up what becomes known as Atlantis. Disperse outposts around world to mine resources. Find small groups of native-born hominids and carry out genetic engineering and use them as labourers and some of them take up bedding the natives. They have blue eyes and introduce that mutation into genetic pool. Denisovan, Neanderthal etc genes combine to make a new composite strain arise ...us. Now that's a story.

[@JamesMC04]

Jason Fults Yoda = E. T. ? The resemblance is startling...

[@salted6422]

@@kuriousitykat We as a species originate most definitely from this planet. We can trace our first ancestors millions of years back to a time when we were nothing more than an ape. Now, you might be saying that they were only the Neanderthal's ancestors, but then I'd have to refresh your memory by saying that sub-saharan Africans do not have Neanderthal DNA, yet they still share these same ancient ancestors with the rest of us. If mankind was indeed created, then we were most likely engineered hundreds of millions years ago, as we cannot find anything we can't explain from our DNA. But to say we are purely the product of our ancestors would be a bit dishonest, since bacteria has played an enormous role in our development. If I were to believe we were intentionally created or our evolution was forced, I'd put my bet on an engineered bacteria causing us to evolve and allowing us to become the apex of this Planet. On a side-note it's worth mentioning how immoral it would be to force primitive animals develop consciousness and then just leave them alone to try and make sense of their surroundings while being relentlessly hunted by their hostile environment. P.S. If you want a damn scary story, entertain the idea that we came to exist without a proper reason or goal. Perhaps evolution is nothing more than a radio frequency in the Universe causing life to evolve for reasons we do not, or want not, to understand. P.P.S. Every (non-Albino) person who has blue eyes have the same ancestor. This is irrelevant, but I find it quite interesting, especially since I have blue eyes.

We haven't seen anything resembling a lower primate in Far Far Away (strange name for a galaxy) so it's possible that these "humans" aren't even primates. At one point George Lucas considered Star Wars, Willow, Howard The Duck, Indiana Jones, American Grafitti and maybe THX-1138 to be in the same universe if not the same galaxy or epoch and hired a writer to bridge the gaps but the project was not completed. This could mean the idea was abandoned by Lucas though. Of course when Capt. Panaka talked about sitting ducks nobody else knew what a duck was.

What if Earth is in the same galaxy, just in one of the unexplored regions - wild space for example. Since Earth is in the end of one of the spiral arms of the Milky Way, it’s entirely possible! Another thing could be wormholes that took future travellers back in time to the Star Wars galaxy. Why can we not use or feel the force? Because the force could be limited. Only residing inside the beings in proximity to the galactic core and staying inside those people, meaning we are unaffected. Why can they travel faster than light if it’s physically impossible? That’s hard to answer, but the force could be something from another universe.. a universe linked to our own by the black hole in the middle of the galaxy; a wormhole. Of course it still has to follow our own rules, but that doesn’t mean it can’t bend them a little bit, allowing said people to travel faster than light and giving them powers unlike any other. Overall the Star Wars universe could exist either outside our own or within our very reaches. How we know about it is up to George Lucas, maybe he heard the story from someone else who lived in that universe or maybe George is from there, visiting our universe to tell us his tales. Well if that’s true, then how did Disney come up with the last three movies? Well that’s the thing, they didn’t. George Lucas told the people at Disney that if they ever wanted to make another set of movies they knew who to ask. ‘How could George have lived so long, the timeline of Star Wars is huge!’ Well George Lucas may just be that very thing that allows the other-worldly properties pf the force to work. He may just be the force itself. Since his powers can’t stretch too far from the entrance to his universe (the black hole) he has to use a form that the universe would recognise and wouldn’t cause alarm to humans, so why not be a human? They’re the same species as in his universe so why not share the story in ours?

[@jnichols3]

At one time, Lucas had toyed with the idea of a movie that would cannonize Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and E.T. as existing in the same universe. It is not cannon, but there is nothing that precludes it either. At least I think so, because I have never actually seen E.T.

[@TheEyez187]

​@@partydean17 Escape trajectory could be possible. It would depend whereabouts in the galaxy you start off; be more likely if you started in the outer rim or spiral arm. A variety of things could cause sufficient gravitational change for something to break away from its original orbit and potentially leave its solar system of origin and venture in to or out of its parent galaxy. The recent Oumuamua asteroid that passed close to us is thought to have been just passing through our solar system. Unable to say if it started off in the Milky Way or if it ventured here from another galaxy. More likely the former, given the immense amount of time it would take for an asteroid to travel between two galaxies. Though it could be a remnant, an object expelled from a far earlier galaxy 10's of billions of years ago; roaming the vast nothingness of extra-galactic space until it crossed paths with us. Would have been really interesting to physically study it, its chemical/elemental make-up, any organic properties. An asteroid alien to our solar system, maybe even our galaxy could contain the existence or evidence of simple life, proving we're not alone (That life err err finds a way! ) or it could just have been a very, very well traveled hunk of rock/iron!?!?. Its course is known.If and when we get advanced at space travel*, it could be collected and studied. Bit long sorry!

[@BrokenEyes00]

There once was a solar system with 12 colonies filled with humans. One day a brilliant scientist lost his bitchy preppy daughter who had joined a cult of religious extremists when her boyfriend detonated a suicide vest on the train they were taking to the spaceport but prior to that she had left her computer experiment where should uploaded her consciousness still running. The brilliant scientist father turned out to be a sham and decide to steal his daughters work and called his own and as a result was able to build a race of robots called cylons. Some unknown shit happened, presumably they became self-aware or whatever, they got pissed at their creators and tried to wipe them all abruptly they signed a peace treaty and fled deep space only to come back 20 years later nuke the entire system and make the survivors flea across the galaxy looking for a new home all the while being chased down by clones who had put synthetic human cylons embedded in their fleet, some of them being pretty hot with one even looking like Xena warrior Princess. More crazy convoluted shit later the humans and clone make peace and land on a plan for your name earth and start boning each other and the native humans on the planet. A few generations after this the robot cylons came back and took a bunch of humans with them into space where they fell into a wormhole and popped into another galaxy far far away. This time the humans made sure that the robots couldn't to become self-aware. They land on the planet that would later become Known as Tattoine, started eating the food and found out they could do crazy shit with their minds. After a while they found that there is indeed intelligent life in this galaxy and of course in typical human fashion some weirdos had a thing for aliens and started boning the aliens and that's why the Star Wars galaxy has robots, humans and near humans.

[@ashirwadsharma7361]

here's a theory for you..... star wars galaxy as we all know is quite literally engulfed in wars. From deadly domestic violence to interstellar bitching. Maybe the war got so intense in the future that the force became sentient and tried to save life cause you know, even the dark side needs someone to bitch to. The task of saving life was so taxing that the force snuff itself out of existence. The result, humans and some other alien species got scattered across different galaxies, maybe even different timelines, and evolved in new exotic ways.

While I definitely don't like the cliche "earth controlled by computers" theory, I DO like the idea of humankind being sucked into a wormhole that transports them back in time to the Star Wars galaxy. It makes you wonder what that galaxy would be like (if it were real) in our current day. Would it be finally brought to balance and peace? Or would it be completely destroyed, or possibly even anarchistic and disjointed in an era without any empires or republics? EDIT: I didn't even think about the THX connection. I just read about that, that Lucas wanted to connect all his films, so the "earth controlled by computers" theory is less cliche-feeling now.

[@kainech]

Or perhaps we were born on Coruscant then, later, the now canonical Yuzhan Vong come with technology that can traverse galaxies, and humans travel here. However, their ship explodes and they are forced to crash land and so get thrown back to the stone age. Then they traveled back in time just like the second theory says. At some point in this constant recycling of time, the Builders notice there are humans here to and are a brute fact unto themselves. They travel to the Star Wars universe to try and kill all the humans, after which we get a Star Wars version of the Avengers to stop them.

[@another90daystochangethis34]

"Long, long ago in a galaxy far, far away..." does not refer to a perspective from our current timeline. It is written from a viewpoint in the distant future and as stated by others, relayed to the Whill species from R2D2's records. Most probable is that humans had found themselves capable of interstellar and FTL travel and had travelled from their real homeworld of Earth to other star systems, if not another galaxy in search of a planet hospitable to them. After initially settling on one of the planets (perhaps Coruscant), they may have continued to settle among other star systems where their presences may have been viewed differently by other alien species and depending on whom, would have been enslaved or so. Perhaps even these humans may have given the tech themselves to other species if it wasn't other species at first. Eventually after thousands or millions of years, Earth was forgotten as a world of origin and laid to waste if it was never revisited again.

Coruscant before becoming planet wide city was basically esoteric earth. Humanity was divided into different nations and an reptilian species called Taung lived in the planet along with humanity. War broke out beetween human nations and Taung and humans were victorious and drove Taung away from coruscant. Taung became the first mandalorians. Human nations of coruscant were descended from fallen atlantis while the reptilian Taung were the Lizard men of Lemuria. Coruscant=earth.
