Don't you all feel very restricted not being able to easily take a ship to other planets? There are always unknown regions but this? Just this one tiny planet you're all stuck on and you can barely even get to your own moon?

It looks like some of my kind have even visited this planet and still you're no more advanced than flying around your own planet.

The technology here leaves a lot to be desired.

on the other hand
when spacetravel is available
intraplanetary exploration is neglected
a planet of this class can contain environments worlds apart

[in other words: how many spacefarers used to flitting from one planet to another have taken the time to realize how vast one planet could be? If it was the right planet. They could have been stuck on Tatooine or Hoth. But ~~Terra~~ "Earth" had climate zones. Luxury.]

Are you saying all this variety should be enough for them to explore?

It still doesn't change the fact that it's all not very advanced.

no doesnt change that
but there is a tradeoff

+ think some in our universe should have remembered better
the macro consists of the micro
individual planets contain multitudes

Well, it wouldn't be my first time not being able to leave a planet.

What happened to you before?

I was supposed to kill a test subject. I decided I'd rather try to keep him safe. I ended up going into hiding...and that was on Earth, too, actually.

Yeah. At least if we visited somewhere and got bored, we could always jump back on the ship and wait for take off.

Who can't even build ships any way?

Seems like any ship they've built can't go very far.

I'd say it was really sad, if it wasn't so frustrating.

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD TELL ME ABOUT IT I WANTED TO CRY WHEN THESE IDIOTS HAVENT EVEN BROKEN THEIR OWN ATMOSPHERE

Can you give them some advice? Surely somebody - some imPort that has come through here - can help them with that.

they dont even have the tech to START building ships apparently stupid hoover cars are more important than leaving this slaghole planet

Yeah, not going to lie, but this has been driving me a little more than crazy.

I would give my left leg for an X-Wing, right about now.

They say it's a big world but it's still only one world. There are only so many opportunities here.

This world is medium sized, at best. But getting accurate Galaxy charts has proven almost impossible. All the distances seem off and nothing lines up right.

We could try building a ship of our own, but I'm not sure where we'd even start.

At this point, I'm willing to settle for an antique Republic star destroyer if it meant I could get off of this planet.

[He misses his star destroyers so much. Finalizer is his home, where he belongs.]

Or any sort of shuttle. What they call a space shuttle doesn't go very far.

It's pathetic how the natives here will brag about those shuttles as if they should have anything to be proud of. A couple of trips to the local moon is hardly impressive.

Aa, yeah. I know the feeling. [short beat.] But...turns out, this place tends to make up for it with being rather lively! Erh...sometimes, too lively, I think.

Lively in what way?

Don't start giving them ideas.

You don't think it's a good idea to encourage space exploration and more advanced tech?

Yes. It's a nightmare. [Which is why he's putting his mechanical expertise to building something useful.] I've been in prisons before, but they were easy compared to this.

You flew a lot, didn't you.

[He does know of Anakin's reputation as a pilot, of course. Not to mention seeing that in action himself.]

It depends on what you're used to. I have more freedom here than I did where I'm from.
