Actually, Star Wars belongs square in the middle of that thing known as
Sci-Fi ("skiffy" I've heard it pronounced). It's "hard science fiction"
that SW doesn't fit into. Although the SW technology is a bit closer to
HSF than Star Trek's.
Not that I like SW or ST any less. Well, Voyager's "Omega Molecule" almost
pushed me over the edge...
