...then don't do anything at all.

Tell this to your children. Don't repeat the mistakes of the past.

:uhh: Was that comment supposed to come out of nowhere? Have you been studying too hard? Maybe you need to ease up on the coffee late at night.

Seriously.

Damn dirty wookies. They should get back to their slavin'. I think I'm mixing movie metaphors now. Not good.

:rofl: Ok, this made me smile.

Now I will go back to having my stroke. I cannot believe what my project manager just told me. What planet are we hiring from?

WHO MOVED THE SMILIES AGAIN? :grumpy: :mad: :devil:

This conjures up a ficticious film entitled Debbie Does a Wookiee Planet. Or, well, maybe that's just me.

That has to be the weirdest title for a porn film I've heard yet.

No wonder my dog has been spending so much time on the phone with NASA.

:rofl: So, did this thread actually have a topic that flew over my head, or do we really need to drag ST out of the lab for a break from the fumes?

This simply begs me to ask the same question Moonbear asked;

Did I miss something? Or have you all been up too long with too much caffine?

I'd heard the the song was an acronym for LSD. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

I'm going to take a guess here:

The Star Wars movies have just re-released on DVD (Including the theatrical verisons).

In the original concept for Return of the Jedi, The Moon of Endor which was the home of the Ewoks was supposed to be the home planet of the Wookies.

ST might feel that the change was a mistake.

Lennon insists it wasn't, and he's usually happy to admit things like that...

Yeah, that and the fumes.

Yeah, I heard that, but it's always good to perpetuate myths. :tongue:

1. Can't we just create a planet for Wookiees?

No, it is not possible for scientists to create a whole new planet. Even if we could, it would require an enormous amount of resources and funding that currently do not exist.

2. Why can't we simply terraform an existing planet to make it suitable for Wookiees?

Terraforming is a complicated and expensive process that involves altering the entire environment of a planet. It would not only be difficult to make a planet habitable for Wookiees, but it would also have negative impact on any existing life forms on that planet.

3. Are there any planets in our galaxy that are similar to a Wookiee planet?

While there are planets that have similar characteristics to those described in Star Wars as Wookiee planets, such as dense forests and tall trees, there is no evidence of a planet that is solely inhabited by Wookiees.

4. Can we genetically modify an existing species to create Wookiees?

No, genetic modification of a species to create a whole new species is currently not possible with our technology. It would also raise ethical concerns and is not a feasible solution.

5. What about finding a habitable planet in a different galaxy for Wookiees?

While there may be other habitable planets in different galaxies, the distance and time required to travel to them makes it impractical and impossible for Wookiees to migrate there. Additionally, the planet may not have the exact conditions needed for Wookiees to survive.
