My absolute favorite part it the “punch” sound the ships make after exiting. Its such an awesome powerful sound and perfectly shown with Vaders ship in Rogue One.
1:08 Probably my favorite lightspeed scene in the series. Seeing the one X-Wing up close exit, seeing that huge ass battlefield of Impreial Star Destroters, and followed by the other fighters and ending with the Cruiser. Sooo fucking cool
That gave me my light speed fix! Thank you for making this ...I am an original Star Wars kid from 1977... Now 57 it’s really amazing to look back and still feel that pure raw excitement...
I wish I could have had my very first star wars experience be seeing episode 4, 5, 6 in theaters at an age where I could fully appreciate it. But growing up watching it over and over on a 30" screen on VHS wasnt bad. But alot of the finer details I never picked up on till years later
I dunno why but seeing a star destroyer or some other massive capital size ship exit lightspeed/warp and arrive is my favorite thing in all of sci-fi. It's like an overwhelming feeling of amazement and a harbinger for an epic conflict
Hyperspace jumps are one of my favorite parts of Star Wars, especially when a bunch of ships exit at the same time. Say what you will about the sequels, but the visual effects are amazing, and hyperspace is no exception.
I love the view from inside ships when exiting lightspeed. At first you see the blue hyperspace and it feels like youre still accelerating, then, you leave the tunnel and see the stretching stars again and it feels like youre "falling", not braking but also not accelerating, as if youre dropping out, and then you suddenly brake and bam your destination just appears infront of you. One of the coolest visual effects I've ever seen in a movie
@@falzar101 I suppose thats what its suppose to be, but its not very evident. It is edited in a way that Lando does look like he is just going without waiting. But, at 38 years old, a bit late now. Well, maybe not at how many changes they have had. Still an epic scene either way.
The amount of coordination it would take to open suppressing fire with blasters the split second you exit hyperspace is really impressive. Not surprising from the empire, but impressive all the same
Many including me may not like the sequel trilogy, but I just can't help myself with mentioning I'm always fascinated by the special effects in those 3 movies. If there's any rewatchabilty for this movies for me, it's soley because of the visuals.
These are always my favorite moments in Star Wars, the Hyperspace Jumps and escapes. I've always bet it's like a plane when it takes off when a ship jumps into the hyperspace tunnel. I don't care what anyone says about "Lightspeed skipping" that was awesome. We rarely get to see that many jumps in a star wars film, let alone a chase scene.
I mean, the fact that an entire naval fleet can just appear with no warning is absolutely terrifying. If the Empire wasnt so powerful, their brazen ill attempts to hide a lot of their prescence would have got them severely fucked on. Though of course the Rebels had barely anything to fight with as could be seen in the scarif fight
Even after finding out George Lucas made these movies in Hollywood, I still spend several years convinced that he still got them from a space transmission. I thought that it really happened a long time ago in a galaxy far far away
I almost pointed out that you missed the one from the Holiday Special, but it doesn't really matter because it's the exact same footage from A New Hope.
Other than just being awesome, this video has also been super helpful while working on Fan Films. Literally a giant reference board for hyperspace right here. Thank You for making it 🙏
It's funny, because the sound is for the viewer effect. In space you would not hear the engines. Even if gas was present you would still only hear a fraction of the vibration of that sound. Its because what we hear on earth, or in a controlled environment, like a spacecraft, plane, or space suit, all have pockets of air, which the sound can travel through and we in turn can hear it.
If ya think about it, the viewports would have to have x-ray filters on them to protect occupants from the light. When a ship is transitioning through the light speed barrier, before entering the artificial wormhole like environment of hyperspace, the star scape light coming towards the ship would be doppler shifted into the x-ray spectrum. That would be harmful if allowed to pass through the viewport material, or hull plating for that matter, to the observer. Ships would more than likely have to be designed with solid hull plating like shields that automatically close all viewports for hyperdrive propulsion, with sensors, instrumentation, and view screens being used instead of the viewports, for navigation. Just a thought.
Great scenes, but funny enough, the the visual experience of entering lightspeed would be very different in real life, the stars would move away and concentrate in front of the craft in a giant white blank lgiht, insted of moving towards the craft.
@@lilou4180 hyperspace is an alternative dimensional space that mirrors realspace but is far more "compact" so distances are much shorter. The ships basically take a shortcut. The lightspeed part is that they enter the dimension by a molecular displacement that happens when moving at the speed of light (in the Star Wars universe atleast). So the zooming is the hyperdrive hurling the ship to lightspeed for a brief moment where it then enters hyperspace.
I just watch this to day dream about the future possibility of faster than light travel. hope humanity makes it there. I'm gonna make it part of my life's mission to do what I can you aid humanity in making it that far. hope I can make a mark, even as a mere pawn in the grand scheme of things
So at some point, the way to engage the hyperdrive on the Falcon went from pushing the throttle forward to pulling the throttle back, and the reverse for exiting. Did Han switch the controls at one point with his many modifications?
Dont get me wrong, i am all pro light speed travel. But my basic understanding of physics reminds me that those scenes are not taking in consideration at all the impact of all that acceleration and deceleration. Those are some heavy G’s.
but you also have to remember that this is happening in a universe where people can live and breathe in planets that are made of nothing but desert and lava lol
Ships in Star Wars use inertial dampeners just like in Star Trek wich is how they can make the manouvers they do without killing everyone inside. Its also how artificial gravity works in Star Wars. Vehicles like walkers also have them so it's a much smoother ride on those things than you would think. They are also why theres no seatbelts of any kind on most speeders. You just have artificial gravity to hold the people in their seats. You can actually see in episode 2 when Anakin does a nose dive with a speeder him and Obi-Wan are being held in their seats.
@@GeekCinema but they used genetic modification in order to breathe on these planets. (Edit: this is not canon and its just my theory of how they are able to breath on these inhospitable planets)
I love Star Wars but have always thought that it's so unlikely, when they exit hyperspace, to be that proximity from their destination. I mean, they're clearly exiting manually, and hyperspace is about the speed of light (299,792,458 miles per second), so to manually get that right and only be a few thousand miles from the destination is surely impossible?
I like to imagine it's not manual and the ship's navicomputer automatically pulls it out of hyperspace when it detects other ships or a planet in the flight path
I wonder why did they never added the stretching stars effect and the hyperspace tunnel in the prequels, since Lucas was so invested on using new cgi, it could've been cool seeing it
People say tlj lightspeed ramming is dumb. Yes it is, but rogue one broke hyperspace first. If you are right by a planet let alone in its atmosphere, you CANNOT JUMP TO HYPERSPACE. You have to be clear of the mass shadow first, (that means you have to be clear of gravity wells.) Same with solo. If you are near a black hole like that then once again you cant jump. Hyperspace is not just a speed booster.
Thats how I felt when the falcon came out of light speed in star killer base's atmosphere. What are the chances of manually Stopping in the planet while moving at lightspeed let alone not being torn apart in its atmosphere while in light speed. But hey its star wars, people have powers, and they can breathe in dessert and lava planets lol
You don’t have to be completely clear of gravity wells in order to jump into hyperspace, as we’ve seen ships jump with planets nearby for a long time. How it works is that the closer you are to a celestial body, the more gravity is pulling on your ship, and the more likely it is to be torn apart. The U-Wing in Rogue one was clearly out of the atmosphere before it jumped, so gravity wasn’t pulling on it as much as you might think. Combine that with a little bit of force luck, and you have yourself a decent shot at making it out alive.

They were pratically at the end of the atmosphere when they jumped, and gravitational force exists almost everywhere
In Solo, they didn't jump to lightspeed when they were close to the black hole, they used the coaxium to get out and then jumped to lightspeed. The coaxium was the speed booster, not lightspeed
Should we think that it disappears in the 4th dimension and emerges from the 4th dimension? However, the distance should not be shortened even if it passes through 4 dimensions. Oh yeah, time may not pass in hyperspace.
It's like the nether in Minecraft, just without all the lava and flying baby ghost things.

Yes, the ship doesnt fisically move throw space it jumps into kind like a wormhole, it is kind teleporting, but not instantly. That's why hyper space ramming is bs, what would happen is that the object in the way would interrupt the process and destroy the ship without suffering big damage
@ a ship accelerating to light speed would be traveling so fast and have so much momentum that I don't understand how it wouldn't deal serious damage to any other ship in its path. I think your reasoning makes less sense than light speed ramming
I had such faith in JJ Abrams to bring the trilogy to a relatively okay end as what rian Johnson left him with was basically impossible to make a good ending film but the light speed skipping was just as bad as rian’s lightspeed suicide kamikaze attack lol if you can light speed skip the way Poe did in the falcon then why not just do that to get to the surface of Exogol instead of all that complicated map route crap?
lightspeed skipping was shown to have a big strain on the falcon, hence why it was on fire when they met up with Rey at the base. And looks like youd have to be a pretty skilled pilot to pull it off. So going by that, I doubt most of the fleet would have made it to Exogol. At least thats what I got out of it.
The Holdo maneuver was awesome, but it definitely breaks combat strategy. All the rebels had to do was hyperspeed a ship into the Death Star in the original movies and the war is essentially over. I'm still glad the scene is in the movie. It's so cool, I hardly care about how much it breaks Star Wars.
its explained in rise of skywalker that the holdo maneuver was a one in a million chance of working. Its too unstable as a usable weapon, you can easily take out your own guys
@@GeekCinema and there's also the problem of ship particles travelling at the speed of light hitting things they don't want to. It was a really desperate move
You should also keep in mind that it would take nothing short of a massive ship to do that to the Death Star, as while x-wings and other common craft would do *some* damage, it wouldn't cripple the battle station, since they're so tiny compared to the Death Star
The Holdo maneuver worked because the Raddus was at the perfect distance away from the Super Star Destroyer. The Raddus wasn't actually traveling at light speed when it hit the destroyer, it was still in the process of accelerating to light speed. If it was further away it would have likely entered hyperspace before it hit the Star Destroyer
The Eliminator Class Hyper-Star Dreadnought, a 1000km long, 600km wide Star Ship, with a 100km wide, Hexagonal shaped Super Weapon Barrel Canon at the Front. The ship is fueled by Shadron, a Powerful fuel, so Powerful, But a Single Tiny Drop can power a Ship the size of the Executor Class for over a Thousand Years. Their is only 1 Eliminator-Class Hyper-Star Dreadnought in all of Existence in the wider Media-Multiverses, and that ship is the Eliminator itself, Flagship, and mobile base for The Void Empire Fleet, and the Universe Destroying super weapon fueled by the Evil Energies from the Void Emperor, The Supreme Master Night Hunter, The Demon Lord of Villainy, Wickedness, & Destruction, and the Wielder of the Multiversal Staff of Villainy, Wickedness, and Destruction himself, GothDum, also known as Shadow Zero. Anyways, the Eliminator-Class Hyper-Star Dreadnought has a Class 0.01 Hyperdrive. It has Two Primary Backup Hyperdrives, which are class 1 Hyperdrives, and a Three Secondary Backup Hyperdrives of class 6 ratings, and 4 Tertiary Backup Hyperdrives of class 12 rating. The Only Ship that can Truly Rival the Eliminator-Class Hyper-Star Dreadnought is the Liberator-Class Super-Star Defender. Which has a Similar appearance to a MC80 Liberty type Cruiser, however, it too, like the Eliminator-Class, is 1000km long. And though it lacks the Universe Destroying super laser the Eliminator-Class has, they have Shield Generators so powerful, they can create a Sheet that spans across an Entire Multiverse. The Liberator-Class also has Universe Moving Tractor Beam projectors. Both the Liberator-Class Super-Star Defender and Eliminator-Class Hyper-Star Dreadnoughts, other then the super weapons, Shields, or Tractor Beams, they are essentially Equal in Fire Power and Sheer Speed. The Liberator-Class Super-Star Defender also has a 0.01 Class Hyperdrive, as well as Sets of Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Backup Hyperdrives. And also like the Eliminator-Class, their is only One Liberator-Class in all of the Media Multiverses, aptly named the Liberation. The Liberation is the Flagship of the United Universes, an Inter-Universal Organization that is set on protecting all the Free Universes of the Media Multiverses from the Grip of the Void Empire. Their are 4 Universes that act as the Shared Capital of the UU. The UU, unlike the Void Empire, is a democracy, and a President is Elected once every 5 Multiverse Years, that is the Time Frame shared by all the Universes of the Wider Media Multiverses. Anyways, the UU is like a combination of the US government, and the United Nations on Earth (in the First Reality). Their is a Secretary of Defense, and the Secretary of Defense for the UU is Luminar Solaris, or his Full Name, Illuminar Solaristar, the Leader of Light, and the wielder of the Staff of Heroism and Purity. He is the Sworn Enemy of GothDum, and a Hater of all things Evil. He commands the Liberation and he engages in warfare against GothDum, over universes Key for defending the Freedom of the Wider Multiverses.
le guerre stellari, la mente che prende altre velocità, che forma dare al mondo, alle cose ... la velocità della luce come guardiano del labirinto, gli dei che ridono ... spazio e tempo un gioco, cosa cambia la velocità, che viene dopo ...
The problem with the whole ‘jump to light speed concept’ is they are ignoring time dialation, theory of relativity. Everyone Jumping around at lightspeed would really mess with peoples time scales. Oh, Darth Vader died 200 years ago, sorry!
I don't know why they added this vortex effect in Star Wars VI. The star light distorsion alone was so iconic while vortex is common to basically all space opera :/
Its not how big your light speed ship is. It's more about how many warping ships one can bring in for multiple coordinates of penetration. Time is always on your side then.
