| Oct 21, 2019 at 15:10 | comment | added | NKCampbell | ..this could also explain why the technology seems so far advanced to our real-world times. The story could still take place far into the future relative to us, but relative to the characters, and the one telling the story, far in their past - which could still be our distant future. | |
| Oct 21, 2019 at 15:09 | comment | added | NKCampbell | it's impossible to know for now. A pet theory of mine (maybe heard it somewhere else so I'm reluctant to take full credit for it) is that we've seen that R2-D2 is one of the more permanent characters throughout the Skywalker saga. We don't know that perhaps the "long time ago" is relative to whoever is telling the story, not "our" real-world time. The tag could still be an in-universe reference, not an out of universe one. R2 could be in a far off galaxy telling this story far into the future.... | |

| Jul 24, 2014 at 7:57 | comment | added | Reinstate Monica - Goodbye SE | I've realised I don't get @DavRob60's joke - can anyone explain? | |
| Jul 24, 2014 at 7:53 | comment | added | Valorum | @davrob60 - I'm pretty sure it's all in Imperial 😊 | |

| Jul 29, 2011 at 15:41 | comment | added | Xantec | It happened a long time ago. Probably long enough ago that the answer would have no meaning to us. Perhaps along the lines of saying "a billion billion X", where X is years in this case. While it is a real number is not readily fathomable and therefore is meaningless. | |

| Jul 29, 2011 at 13:18 | comment | added | DampeS8N | @Wikis At Area 51: Hm, your point about the answer in the other question is valid. As I didn't specifically list the time frame that the ET expedition occurred (and can't locate it) I could reopen this. However, this question probably doesn't have an answer based on anything better than ET. Lets find out. | |
| Jul 29, 2011 at 13:12 | comment | added | Reinstate Monica - Goodbye SE | @DampeS8N - I don't think so. That one seems tongue in cheek (mixing fiction and reality) and is a combination of time and distance. The answer is based on a tenuous link with ET! I'm thinking of a Star Wars specific answer, possibly from the expanded fiction. | |
