Everything OUTSIDE the Star Wars Galaxy (Legends and Canon) 

Hi Eck! Hope your having a good day!

#AskEck *Faction versus battle* The Vaygr and Taiidan Empire (Homeworld) vs the Citadel (Mass Effect).

No, thank you mate, your content is always great!

EckhartsLadder I’m in no rush, I see your videos as a nice treat for my Star Wars addiction whenever I see them. :-)

There are 19 New Jedi Order books, plus the invasion comics

66th like HAHAHA

Lol

That Story wasnt canon to the EU. Would be cool though.

So THAT'S where Bigfoot went!

Harrison Ford becomes the Spiderman meme, pointing at himself.

They might find earth and trump

The History Guy check out StarWarsTimeline.com and read Cult Encounters and Supernatural Encounters. They never got officially published by LucasFilm dude to Disney blasting the Expanded Universe's lore and stories into obscurity and relegating it to just be Non-Canon and derelict Post-2014...

I wanna see a jedi do a mind trick on a certain weakminded leader of ours

Places and Spacecraft for me.

I find the unknown fascinating, I wish I was a astronaut so I could be the first to see new planets in person... but maybe in another life

Daniel Ivanov Thought it was a different dimension?

He IS the galaxy... And manifests himself when it's needed...

You can get there with normal ships but somehow its also outside the galaxy and time its a weird place

Mortis is in World between Worlds

Mortis isn't in the same universe. It's a different plane of existence.

No that’s just stupid

@@averagedaredevilenjoyer5733 how ? It may sound stupid out of context but its not that stupid Compared to other things in star wars

turkey fluff well yeah ig

It was designed to stop extragalactic threats from either leaving or entering. Of course their was a loophole in this plan because in case the main galaxy, Sky River, was too damaged to further support future life its inhabitants could escape. The only problem with this design plan is that unless a civilization is highly advanced or behind, the travel time between the extragalactic void will very well kill you and several generations after that before you ever see the lights of another galaxy. Such was the fate of the Yuuzhan Vong leaving their satellite galaxy only to go mad from grief and the millennia traveling the endless black void. Another problem with this galactic design is that this doesn't stop extradimensional beings from plopping in and out of the galaxies and full blown universe ! A lot of eldritch horrors in the past exposed this flaw and we're able to spread evil and destruction to the galaxies around them as well...

Warren Gouldthorpe interesting 🤔🤔

@frank grimes actually Disney hasn't said anything about Kotor not being cannon, BUT Revan himself/herself depending on what disney wants to do with the character IS actually cannon but what the story is behind the character is up for grabs

It was not the vong

@@robertzorzi7254 An editor from Lucas Publishing said that everything but the OT/PT, the Star Wars: Clone Wars tv show, and everything made after April 25, 2014 is canon.

@@ZeroNumerous Revan is the name of a sith trooper squad in RoTS which means Revan is cannon as well as a few other sith Lords, eks also went over this In a past video, also they have be retrofitting what's cannon and what's not by adding small things a little at a time including Bane and the rule of two. So saying what's cut off from cannon vs what is cannon is constantly changing

@Palpatine McSenateFace but that was metallic

Republic. And it was both. It was, according to Attack of the Clones, near the Rishi Maze, which is explicitly outside the Galaxy.

@@maximumeffort7096 so if there is that galactic barrier, how did they get to kamino?

@@jameshersom2536 I think the barrier isn't at the literal edge of the Galaxy, but a couple light years past it, which Kamino falls under. I say this because people can reach the galaxies of the Rishi maze and Fire fist (which is another Galaxy close by) which are also a couple light years out. The Rebellion hung out in the Rishi Maze in Episode 5 when they were fixing Luke's hand.

That makes alot of sense lol, thanks for clearing that up for me. This kind of thing is extremely confusing XD. And as for the Vong, the Vong actually entered from a gap called Vector Prime which was apparently the only hole in the barrier to the north of the Galaxy when the Vong arrived.

Kamino was beyond the outer rim, so technically "outside the galaxy"

Technically in legends that's how human came to be in the star wars Galaxy with some wibbily wobbly timey wimey stuff and worm holes you get the human in a galaxy a long time ago far far away. I read somewhere on wookiepedia and they don't know where the human landed but they make it sound like a earth like planet and make it seem like it was corusant or corellia

@@xdarkkylex it was implied in somewhere that a portion of humans are abducted by the Rakata and used as slaves, until they outlived them.

@@theloweffortchannel7211 yeah revan found some evidence of that but it was because the human were transported to the star wars Galaxy first and that were the Rakata used them as slaves so the Rakata didn't actually pick up the humans from earth but the easiest answer for this is that the opening crawl for star wars has always said that the star wars Galaxy exists in our universe

@@xdarkkylex so it is safe to assume that humans already had some degree of spacefaring capabilities and may have even went into conflict against the Rakata?

@@theloweffortchannel7211 well from what I understand they never specified what stage the humans were at developmental wise. However in an uncannon book that link geroge Lucas first movie THX to star wars giving the humans a back story the humans definitely had space travel and when they arrived in the star wars Galaxy by chance they were enslaved plenty of times. fought and won several times to. So I would say that the answers can be found somewhere in that material to fill in the blanks that the humans history has in legends.

That's more of a Star Trek or Stargate thing.

Darwin Xavier Love me some SG! I’d love to see a new series come out, maybe something that comes after SG-1, Atlantis and Universe. Something about them being the Fifth Race...maybe the Gate program becoming public?

@@jlf13766 I would worry that continuing SG like that would run into Babylon 5 season 5 syndrome. As in there would be no more big threats to worry about and all the conflict would be petty infighting or "the newest unknown threat" out of nowhere (The Hand from Legend of the Rangers). Meanwhile the once thrilling spirit of the genre seems to fade into slow heat death. Plus I'd rather pretend that Universe never happened.

Harry Baron-Richardson that’s basically Voyager

You could change it up with the exploring ship being imperial. A evil explorers perspective.

on point^^

Its a perfect mess and i love it

Honestly, I've got a book on the timeline of Star Wars, The New Essential Chronology, and it seems pretty straight forward overall. I'm sure the occasional little details here and there are a mess, but the big picture seems to make one glorious narrative that's full of imagination and adventure.

honestly without the clone wars (2008) contradicting everything it works pretty well

Some Random Communist I find your faith in communism disturbing.

What the prequals should have been, something new not a repeat of the main trilogy

@@alexchamov5961 The prequels showed us the Jedi, the Galactic Republic and just how corrupt they wear and why they both fell. It didn't repeat the OT.

Oh, man that would be so sick, unfortunately there would obviously have to be major changes due to the age of Mark Hamil, and due to Dcanon. At the end of the day though I think I'd be ok with seeing Rey and the gang go up against the vong.

@@GMacAttack5I would rather it be some years after the ST where we see the next generation fight it. Rey could be in Lukes role which is not the main character but just there.

Alex Chamov you mean the sequels? They were a garbage rip off of the OT. The prequels were entirely different

I had it made for me

@@ijent3819 😂 no

@@ijent3819 REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Make sense!

Also annoying since I thought they wrapped up another way Anakin was "the chosen one" quite awesomely...was Rogue Planet decannonized, or is it still cannon being prequel era?

@@jamesrudnicky5937 Every book written predisney is no longer canon

@@tkalle1299 not actually true. Some has been kept. Some has been retconned and/or altered. Disney really hasn't said much about pre-Return of the Jedi being cannon or not aside from the new comics, and few of those touch on anything prior to episode 3. There is little to no official statement on what is cannon out of the old books, aside from everything that was post RotJ definitely being legends. Certain older novels that have been re-movied or storyboarded like Han Solo's origins. The novel in question has not been decannonized or rewritten. So far it seems to fall into the same realm as The Clone Wars tv show...which is still cannon. So. My question stands. Is there an answer from Disney? No? Is it rewritten yet? No? Then it still falls solidly between episode 1 and 2, and develops the legacy of Anakin in the shadows long forgotten by anyone but die hard fabs

​@@tkalle1299 Disney's opinion on canonicity doesn't matter.

I never heard about that... Sounds interesting.

It wasn’t cannon even in the old cannon. It was more of a what if. Han died by the natives there, and Chewbacca survived and later became known as “Bigfoot” pretty nice comic

@@luxinvictus9018 It could have been on the East side, where there is no barrier.

Waffles For All It’s a new thing where content considered for kids have comments turned off

Nah, my account is 13+, it’s just because it had less than a minute since the video had been uploaded

What if i filter to newest first? YT: Yes

@@matthewfuller3826 No, the video. Not your account.

was just about to say that lol

@@kellenat0r346 well both of you are wrong though, the system of kamino is south of the Rishi Maze and as said in the video the Rishi Maze is a companion galaxy beyond the outer rim, therefore kamino is extragalactic. and if you only want proof from the movies in EP2 Dex states kamino is beyond the outer rim

It's explicitly stated that it's outside of the galactic rim and between it and the Rishi Maze. Obi Wan also pointed to the space between the main galaxy and Rishi Maze on the archive map

He said he's not buying them, maybe he's a pirate now

Probably and older comic

@@gamerguy9729 It is.

I mean with infinite galaxies comes an infinite amount of possibilities

There is no doubt completely desolate galaxies in reality lol... not fictional whatsoever

? I see plenty of stars

That makes no sense. What does being outside of a given galaxy have to do with not seeing stars? We can see stars from countless other galaxies in the universe. If anything if you were outside of the galactic disc you'd see even more since your view isn't obscured by light pollution from nearby stars or outright blocked by gas/dust.

What

I think your name makes sense with that comment my guy

@@Hawk7886 maybe there's a part in the Universe where light hasn't reached, meaning no Stars to see, just imagine that part of the Universe, just pitch darkness, that would be disturbing

Did you misspell explained or is that a play on words I’m not getting

@@wheetshire it's was a bad pum

Toasty pun based on the channel name

I literally forgot the channel name right there sorry

Well, George Lucas got his inspiration from ST, I guess... cuz Star Trek is much older compared to SW sooo....

@@maximussieger1488 wasn't he inspired by Flash Gordon?

@@elroma7712 Do not ask what inspired George Lucas. It's a long list. Though one inspiration is always worth mentioning because it shows that, with care, every story can be adapted to another genre. Take a look at Akira Kurosawa's movie 'Hidden Fortress' (1958).

Katrina LeFaye they did the Dark Empire Trilogy dirty with TROS...

BlackShogun 27 I agree. Now that I think about the sequels are the dark empire comics

And maybe... *Tau Empire have cross the chat*

@@blackshogun272 Spoilers ahead: We should've gotten Luke vs Palpatine, damn it! 🤦‍♂️

Belive a missile is a anti Fighterweapon and the torpedo is anti capital/Warships.

Although they make torpedoes in various sizes and yields...

@@chrissonofpear1384 Just like real torpedoes? I'm pretty sure it is a case of the intended target deciding things.

U.N. Owen but concussion missiles? Because they are obviously anti cabital ship weapons right for example on the a wing or milenium falcon

Though in games they are often used more against fighters. May have better armour piercing, but lower yield.

God i hope not. i dont want to them to be watered down and missused too. Just let them stay in legends where they belong. I mean, dont get me wrong, id like to see them on screen too, but i dont trust the people currently in charge of lucas film one bit. maybe if Favrou and Filoni actually take over, then it could be done well. there was even a planned episode of The Clone Wars with a Yuuzhan Vong Scout. Sadly it was canceled but the idea was there for Dave.^^

I like picturing them destroying the Galaxy after the Sequels ended There is no big governments or armies, no leaders like Thrawn, Luke or Fel, no Jedi or sith just some Ma-Rey Sue with a Lightsaber and she can't bullshit her way out of beating the Vong

@@John-Stark I'm pretty sure she could, considering that it's implied she has the power of all the Jedi in history combined

The vong before war: anyone seen my essential herbs?

Kaminoans are space Luddites

it´s not imposible because every galaxie has his own roules what can be happen and what not.

SuperGodzilla99 No

What about Halo?

Timur 56255 isn’t Halo and Warhammer 40K in the same galaxy? Thats why i didn’t count them in. BSG and WH40K can co-exist though, since BSG’s events take place in a difrent star system and then end up in Earth 20k BC or something like that, way before 40K’s events.

Timur 56255 or perhaps Halo’s events could be the “Dark age of Technology” in Warhammer 40K, so yeah maybe HALO can join in too

Skywalker That's one hell of a coincidence.

The last time i jacked off to an Eckhartsladder video was the battle of the dreadnaughts.

@@zephsuki I have a brother?

@@thatoneradicalizedprussian225 Holy shit

@@zephsuki apology accepted, captain Needa.

Same I want to see resurgent class battlecruiser vs mc85 star cruiser

Not likely. Class 1 hyperdrives, the fastest standardized ones available, are capable of at least 1,000,000 times the speed of light. Moving at that speed, a colony ship could get to the Andromeda galaxy in two years from the Milky Way. Even if other galaxies are farther from the Star Wars galaxy, it wouldn’t be far enough that a scientific probe couldn’t get there. So there has to be some other reason.

@JL Not really. Black holes are, of course, but the only wormhole-like thing I can remember are a pair of hoops belonging to a kind of circus performer or something. The hoops were about two meters wide, and when activated, formed a link between each other so that what went through one came out of the other. I think they may have been in the Lando Calrissian novels, but those are the closest things I can remember. They’re kind of like miniature Stargates from the franchise of the same name, except I think the hoops worked both ways and they only worked if they didn’t get more than fifty meters from each other. As for their provenance, no one knows who made them. This is from the old Essential Guide to Technology, I think, the one from either the 90s or very early 2000s. Hope that helped.

@@ryanpennington9592 besides the barrier nearly everyone that tried to explore were driven mad by either isolation or some indescribable horror that they encountered

J T nah, the barrier is still there. Obi-Wan simply didn't need to go through it. The Rishi Maze satellite galaxy had begun to merge with Sky River eons ago. The barrier was weakened but low key produced several anomalies and hazards from two monolithic celestial clusters combining, this giving the title of the Rishi Maze by inhabitants in Sky River...

BlackShogun 27 I still don’t buy the galactic barrier thing. What about the ending of ESB? If they were far enough away to be able to look out the window and see the entire galaxy, they were millions of light years beyond any so called barrier. Even Wookieepedia says the following about how far they were from the galaxy: That point, code-named "Haven" by the Rebels, was located beyond the Galactic Rim, far above the galactic equatorial plane and far away from any stars. It was beyond the galaxy's gravity well, making it a perilous journey to reach, one that many of the Rebel ships escaping from Hoth may not have been able to make. It is likely that the Rebellion suffered additional losses in the attempt to reach that point.

If you're talking about the sequel trilogy, then here's a plot twist. Disney used some of Legends' ideas for it. The more divisive ones that is.

@@johnnygyro2295 I was more so talking about how Legends was just so much more creative and fleshed out. Part of why the new canon pisses me off is that they wiped Legends away only to create shittier versions of stuff from Legends. Kylo Ren is just a shittier Jacen Solo. They're not doing anything new, just crappy rehashes of older, better ideas.

Legends is a big mess with no distinguished canon but it’s way better than the current movies

when you pull someone you push them when you choke someone they breathe easier when you push someone they get yeeted?

I'm thinking someone finally got sick of how pathetic their ground forces were, and said "Okay, seriously, we need SOME soldiers who can fight, we can't rely on Super-weapons and Darth Vader all the time!"

@@Crossbones6732 or Vader just got tired of being the only competent one on a battlefield

*Dark Age of Technology

Imagine Elites in star wars

Way back in the 90s there were plans for novel that explain why humans are in the Galaxy, basically coruscant was earth in the past and future and humanity was escaping a malevolent AI brain

@@urielramirez4669 makes sense, AI takes over, humanity flees to corellia, tatoine and stuff or go all Assassins creed and set it in the past , in our presnt the star wars galaxy destroed itelf and reset humanity.

@@DaraGaming42 it makes sense but there are so many questions: what happened to the force? Did all aliens die? Is the Galaxy destined to slowly die from continuous wars?

What would happen if you crossed over from dbs to star wars? You think you would smoke planets like a blunt?

Another commentator said it was because they were in something called the rishi maze (also apparently where kamino is) that is either at or close to the edge of the galaxy

What does that mean though? In relative terms all other galaxies are far far away, even compared to other stars in their own galaxies. What are the actual dates and distances involved in that opening title sequence? That's information that I want to find out.

In episode 2, dex tells obi wan it's beyond the outer rim

Check 0:19 lol the video opens with it

I mean technically but it's more likely that it could be covered on a multiversal scale for example where the laws of physics from differently and things like hyperspace are possible. That's to say hyperspace isn't possible in our own universe which is most likely true

theres no barriers in solar systems
