Star Wars CRT #1 (Sequel Trilogy. Starkiller Base/Sublight Speed)

Starkiller Base

The solarvac array in the Starkiller uses the gravitational lens of a nearby star to collect quintessence energy, storing and amplifying it within a hyperspatial field generated by the kyber crystalline core. The weapon array of the Starkiller punched a hole through hyperspace, sending the torrent of energy to a target light years away. Upon emergence in realspace, the energy follows spacetime curvature into planetary gravity wells, forking at extreme velocities to destroy every planet in a star's orbit. This is the fate of the worlds of the Hosnian system.

...The accumulated stellar mess begins seeping out of its hyperspatial pocket...

A pocket nova was a phenomenon known to astrophysicists that occurred when a planetary core was ignited by an outside force, resulting in the formation of a star. They could be caused by concentrated phantom energy blasts, as demonstrated by the First Order's Starkiller superweapon.

• Starkiller Base should qualify for Space-Time Manipulation (Starkiller Base punched a hole through hyperspace and it's further stated that it punched a hole through the space-time continuum.)
• Starkiller Base should qualify for Temperature Manipulation (Starkiller Base's utilization of phantom energy could cause planets to become a star.)

Starkiller Base Attack Speed​

• Starkiller begins firing at ~2525 and reaches Hosnian Prime at ~2948, or 16.92 seconds (the official time of Starkiller Base's blast can be seen in this scene from Star Wars Resistance)
• 52156.24 Lightyears = 1.64592576e+12 Light seconds / 16.92 = 97,276,936,170.2x FTL

Sequel Trilogy sub-light speed

This specific image with the route map comes from The Last Jedi Visual Dictionary ( the route is on the lower-middle left side.)​

• The Star Wars Galaxy is canonically 120,000 light years in diameter. The Last Jedi Visual Dictionary shows that the distance between the drop-off in hyperspace of the Resistance/First Order fleet to Crait is a distance 4073 light years.
• The hyperspace drop-off takes place at 26 minutes into the film while Finn and Rose's departure for Cantonica takes place at 51:40 (where Rose states that the Resistance Fleet only has 16 hours of fuel left.) We'll assume a 32-hour flight time:

3.156e+7 / (60 x 60 x 32) = 273.95x FTL (32 hour end)
3.156e+7 / (60 x 60 x 48) = 182.638888889x FTL (2 day end)
3.156e+7 / (60 x 60 x 72) = 121.759259259x FTL (3 day end)

The initial lightspeed jump from D'Qar placed the Resistance fleet within sublight range of Crait, an unlisted mineral world that once served as an Alliance base.

1. So according to the ROTS Visual Dictionary, sublight range is 4000+ light years.

• Some Star Wars ships should have their realspace speed increased to FTL-FTL+

have you sent this to the discussion thread?

I agree.
I don’t think so at all, but I have something I want to ask. Is there anyone scaled to this speed? I was just curious.

No, I haven't. I will in a bit

1. Resurgent Class Star Destroyer
2. MC85 Star Cruiser
3. Supremacy (Mega Class Dreadnought)

To be honest, Galactic Empire/Rebellion era ships should qualify too. The Resistance Bunkerbuster, which got lost fuel and destroyed close to the end of the fleet chase, had existed during the Rebellion era. It maintained the FTL+ realspace speed too and only fell victim to losing fuel. Therefore, ships like MC80 star cruisers and Imperial-Star Destroyers should have their realspace speeds jumped up to that level too (and they 100% have better fuel reserves than the tiny Bunkbuster ships.)

What I’m really curious about is whether there’s anyone scaled to this on a character basis.

Example Luke Vader Sidious etc.

I guess there is Kylo perceiving the Starkiller's lasers lmao this makes feats like Han reacting to hyperspace and the high republic shenanigans consistent
