(...) The system they were coming from was on the other side of the planet. A fortunate coincidence for the Rebellion. At that point the Death Star orbited the gas giant and was using its gravity to sling shot around to the side with the moon. (A (...) (18 years ago, 22-Aug-06, to lugnet.starwars, FTX)
