Not Long Ago, in this Very Galaxy
EmailGina Sunseri has sent this from Houston: "Luke Skywalker’s original Jedi lightsaber is now aboard the space shuttle Discovery, ready for the scheduled Oct. 23 launch with the STS-120 astronauts. Star Wars fans from around the world are invited to log onto www.starwars.com and send their best wishes to the shuttle crew. The official Star Wars web site will put all of the messages on a CD and present them to the astronauts at the public debriefing at NASA’s Space Center Houston once they return from the ISS. "Unfortunately the shuttle crew won’t get to play with it or take it out on a spacewalk."

As a SW fan, this is great news. As a kid I always wanted a working lightsaber. But unfortunatly, they don’t exist. Yet. I’m sure one day some fan will do all the science and figure it out. Best wishes to the crew.

Can a lightsaber be possible???
Looks like impossible. Even if it is possible, the person using it could kill onself easily.
