Quote:Well I won't debate the whole heat radiating thing, because the very notion of a beam of light that just stops midway is silly to begin with.
Suspension of disbelief, DJ. You just have to believe that, in that universe,the rules of physics are slightly different... to allow for hyperspace, the Force, lightsabers, etc. :)
Where a sci-fi universe is tested is not in how it creates its rules, or what those rules are, but if it follows its own rules. And Star Wars, for the most part, succeeds at that.

Haven't you seen TPM?
