I'm sure it's fine. I just recently saw this one guy who hyperspaced like 5 times in a row just to get a few fighters off him, and he conveniently found 5 planets in a row without smashing into anything.
@@tinguspingus1523 Omg true. It took an ENTIRE SCENE to fix it too. And to think that we had an entire movie previously where the Falcon was broken and desperately needed fixing!
What is this from it sounds familiar Edit: Ok so it's episode 9, and in my defense we were running late for the movie when me and my friend first saw it cause a crash jammed the highway. So I missed that whole scene by the time we sat down in theaters.
I remember a Holonet news story on the old star wars website that talked about someone's temporal regulator (or something like that) that malfunctioned and this guy showed up hundreds years after he left but for him it was only as long as a typical flight.
Although this is two months old, this is actually a real thing, it’s shown in the movie “Interstellar” as they travel through a black hole and experience something called time dilation. I think it has to do with moving at such a speed your cells do not work at the same rate causing them to slow down and their lifespans are increased or something like that, been a while since I read about it. Very interesting though.
Serfing wookiepedia some years back I came across that story. I had actually started typing out my own story with the same premise where the main character buys a vintage ship that had a hyperdrive problem and jumped into the future and was present at famous star wars battles. I haven't touched it in a few years. I'm thinking on working on it again.
@@thecolossalwang2308 it is A: because the speed of light is a constant. Time dilation is a result of the theory of relativity. In result your time in relation to... as an example earth goes slower when you get nearer the speed of light. B: because of gravity as it is the case in Interstellar. Gravity shapes spacetime which results in a difference in time in a gravitational field.
That's a fun premise and I too thought there was a comic book about this from star wars but maybe something completely else and to the person aboves ya time dilates its like a needle or a pinhole if you left earth at the speed of light when you come back you will 100 years or more younger than the earth when you left. That is also why time travel to the past is most likely impossible, because time can't dilate past the point of lightspeed and only get a nano second in the future is the closest we could get. We would have to rewrite the fundamental laws of physics if we could time travel backwards but forwards is very probable. Cool ideas!
In the old games, ships usually had a backup hyperdrive, albeit much slower than the standard ones. So you could still have a back up but be in a place where your supplies would run out before you could arrive at a planet. Now the Traveller series game had it worse. No back up, high fuel requirement to jump and a very limited jump range. In Star Wars a misjump might take a couple of weeks to get back from (assuming just a misjump and not total engine failure). In Traveller it could take months to get back IF the jump drive wasn't destroyed and IF you could find or harvest fuel. In a void space, time to roll up new characters.
@@phantom1100 Right. In game terms it would have been a low trip. The range he mentioned was fuel and other supplies. I don't recall if the game had fuel seperate or if all consumables were lumped into on stat, since each ship had such a rating in terms of days to months.
And that’s why you have such contingencies as a backup hyperdrive, or if all else fails, a carbonite freezer. Suspend crew, shutdown systems to bear minimum capacity, drop an emergency beacon and say a prayer as you drift into an indefinite ice nap.
Seriously, with the quarantine in place, this would be a great time to get the crew together for some sort of fundme type thing so we can get the second half of that battle animated!

"Where we're going, we won't need eyes to see." "I created the Event Horizon to reach the stars, but she's gone much, much farther than that. She tore a hole in our universe, a gateway to another dimension. A dimension of pure chaos. Pure... evil. When she crossed over, she was just a ship. But when she came back... she was alive! Look at her. Isn't she beautiful?" - Dr. Weir (Sam Neill)
In the West End Games book you found at least some of them. The Charon had found them first though. Think giant spider-like and extremely genocidal monsters who also liked unpleasant medical experiments.
Battletech (since we're talking about other series) has something like that. Dark nebulae that are filled with jump ships of various time periods. You could be playing in the 3rd succession war, and run into early Star League ships... But that's not all. You could also run into Clan Jumpships form the invasion period... You could also run into your own Jumpship. With a chance that the crew *your crew* are still alive... Most likely they be dead. Because that's the way of Jump malfunctions.
Thane36425 in an unpublished Legends article and novella it is explained the true depravity and horror that lurks in Otherspace AKA: Dark Illathurion. The Charon actually inhabited a single star system that was dreadfully close to a violent black hole and over decades of observation by its people and the realization that they'd never be able to escape their sector of space due to it, the race of insectoid people went mad. The dark entities (things like Vitiate/Valkorion) that lurk within Dark Illathurion wasted no time in twisting the already broken minds of the Charon until they all but physically resembled the Yuuzhan Vong and worshipped death and destruction. Planets in the same solar system with life were eventually invaded and sterilized by the insane race and firmly believed after their campaigns that they had exterminated all life in their galaxy. Proven false by a wormhole that lead back to the original galaxy, the Charon hardened their resolve to exterminate all life that existed on the other side of the portal. Had they not been blasted back into that hellish dimension by the very few sane Charon and New Republic, the eldritch horrors that lurk in Otherspace/Dark Illathurion would have eventually escaped and brought unspeakable bloodshed and chaos across the galaxy. Another cosmic war would have erupted and this time, the guidance of The Celestials and untainted Firstborn races would not be of service. The galaxy would bleed out in agony and truly die...
@@blackshogun272 That was mentioned as their goal and was part of the reason they were gathering misjumped ships, trying to find a way to real space. The characters weren't the only ones there. Some Imperials were there, too. I don't want to give it away of anyone plays the game, but they were very interested in him. If I recall, their scientists also offered to essentially turn the characters into Charon through surgery if they wanted it. We declined.
Hyperdrive failures or improper calculations can result in collisions with hyperspace shadows, a sort of reelection of mass from an object in realspace. This is why you have to follow lanes, even when there appears to be a straight shot from one system to another. This is also how interdictors work, by generating so much mass that they create hyperspace shadows inside a lane. One of Naga Sadow's ships made an emergency jump to avoid a collision without first plotting a course and collided instead with a hyperspace shadow, forcing her back into realspace. She shook up an engine and crash-landed on a tribal moon in the middle of nowhere, to be stranded for all eternity
Most hyperdrive ships had a backup hyperdrive for malfunctions, the millennium Falcon had a backup 10 hyperdrive. Not as fast as it's .5 hyperdrive, but fast enough to get to the next planet that will sort out your ship. Sort of like a spare tire.
Are you sure about that? The Millennium Falcon is heavily modified and is not the standard ship. I'd expect it to have a backup hyperdrive. The Acclamator class assault ship don't have a secondary backup hyperdrives
I played that West End "Otherspace" module back in the day. Basically your hyperdrive failed and you were in otherspace and quite near a Charon base. It was surrounded by many other ships that had had hyperdrive failures, too. You had to go around looking for parts to fix your ship and naturally that meant going into the base. It was tough but we had good shooters, blasters, and armor (a team of bounty hunters/merchants/rebel spies). We got the parts, managed not to lose anyone and escaped.
So hyperspace is travelling into and out of a dimension, I always thought it was just travelling really really fast in space. Makes sense now cuz there would be a 9/10 chance you would hit a space rock or something.
Hyperspace is more of a Hyper highway set routes that are deemed safe to travel through. Going into hyperspace into something doesn’t make you invincible for example in Rouge One a ship is seen in the battle of scarif that goes into a Star Destroyer by mistake while going into hyperspace and gets annihilated on impact.
Or... you have the luck of my character and make a blind jump trying to escape the faction you were just aggressively removed from, and get launched 5 months into the future, just shortly after their collapse, then you were just stuck dealing with everything
The Empire was STUPID. Just make a bunch of Hyperspace missiles and put them in Star Destroyers. Boom. Galactic Domination achieved. But imagine how easy Space terrorism is. One ship with a hyperdrive can kill BILLIONS or even TRILLIONS of lives, and you can do nothing to stop it.
I thought originally you'd get spit out of hyperspace (violently) if you got too close to a gravity well, and ships could generate artificial gravity wells (that was how ships had gravity on the inside and how hyperspace denial worked) ? @ee eee 's point is good in star wars we can see that hyperdrives are cheap, you can afford to put them on fighters. If it is possible to hit a planet, we should be seeing it all the time. 2 or 3 X-wings hitting a light speed would be plenty to cripple a planet.
I was today years old when I found out that Star Wars’ hyperspace is another dimension, like in Warhammer. I always thought it was just traveling at light speed.
I remeber when I was eleven, and my school had these collection books of star wars comics. One of them I read talks about a young spacer, most likely in his twenties whos hyperdrive fails. He then spends 60 YEARS traveling at sublight to the nearest planet.
@@404found00 If I remeber correctly he used pills to sleep away for the first few years. Then went crazy for a few more until stumbling upon a femal servant robot who became something of a wife. Taking care of him, keeping him company etc. But she eventually gives up her life (parts) to keep him alive
Hyperspace: I fear no one But that thing..... *Holdo* It scares me. Also thank god HorusVirus music backed away, now I hope they don't drown in the Lego river, I hope they get rescued.
One of my favorite lines from Halo is the line from Reach about a civilian ship's slipspace drive was mounted improperly and "teleported half of the ship into oblivion."
In the Stark Hyperspae War, Iaco Stark uploads a navcomputer virus to the republics' ships' computers, so when they exit hyperspace they end up crashing into planets, stars, black holes or just places so far away from the known galaxy its is impossible to return at sublight speed.
Hyperdrives have a safety lockout that prevents you from going to hyperspace, and (rather violently) drops you from hyperspace, if you're too close to a gravity well. All you have to do is disable that.
Actually there is some sort of hyperspace barrier on the edge of the galaxy. Any ships that attempt to go past that barrier are either never seen again or are sent back without their crew.
Reactions to hyperspace travel/Warp travel accidents for various races in Star Wars and 40k: - humans and other species in Star Wars: "This will not end well" - humans (mostly them) in Warhammer 40k (demonic incursion aboard the ship): "OOOOH NOOOOO!" - Orks in Warhammer 40k (demonic incursion aboard the ship): "Look Boyz! Ere komes our entertainment!"
humans in Halo: "OH FUCK, TODD JUST DISAPPEARED FOR NO REASON AND SOMEONE JUST TURNED A SLIPSPACE DRIVE INTO A BOMB, THAT SHIP'S BEEN FUCKIN' TELEPORTED INTO OBLIVION!"
If I remember correctly that Sith ship dint really "travel to the future". Instead the malfunction caused it to move at near light speed without entering hyperspace. The crew reacted almost immediately and shut it down but time dilation did it's thing and over 1000 years passed in the meantime.
In Legends, here was an Old Republic Jedi and his (soon-to-be turnt) Apprentice that were in a ship that had a hyperspace malfunction, and time traveled from ~2900 BBY all the way to 41 ABY. Was one of Wookiepedia's featured articles the other day and it seemed very bewildering for the two, suddenly being in a time so much different from their own.
#askeck what happens to a blaster bolt if it misses it target in space?? Ex: Tie fighter shoots a shot at an Xwing but it doesn’t hit and keeps goin into space. What happens to that shot?? Does it keep going?
As the other two mentioned it'll burn out, the real question you should be wondering is what happens to all of those rockets that miss their target and sometimes are hurtling towards the orbits of planet like in the case of the battle of coruscant.
@@theempiredidnothingwrong3227 Probably run out of fuel and fall to the ground by gravity. If it's launched in the vacuum of space it would probably go on forever until it hits another object or explode automatically
@@arthurballs2754 I'm not saying that based off of what Finn said (even though that exposition confirms it), I'm basing it off of the fact that we've never seen it done before, and is such a crazy, sacrificial move. A lot of things have to go right for the move to work, especially the size of ships and what's inside them.
@@henryvdl3692 you said "A lot of things have to go right for the move to work, especially the size of ships and what's inside them." Do you mean what's inside the weaponised ship or what's inside the targeted ship. Please give examples of what types of cargo stops a Holdo manoeuvre being possible in your made-up on the spot theorising.
Like an unknown, unresponsive ship of heretical and very likely xenotech design suddenly in orbit around the single most well fortified location in Warhammer 40K without using a detectable method of FTL would ever even have time for the pilot to get confused before having his ship vaporized and soul removed.
But, if Hyperspace is a separate dimension, then why did the Malevolence navi-computer have to go around the Kaliida Nebula to reach the Republic medical facility in the episode Shadow of Malevolence? Further, why is the Nebula in non hyperspace travel actually a faster, albeit more dangerous, route than the hyperspace alternative?
Because, as we've seen before, even if you do hyperdrive through something, you still go through that thing. For instance the Malevolence jumps straight into a moon, and Holdo jumps into the big ol star destroyer. You still interact, just at super speeds. Now I can't explain fully why it would be faster to go through the Nebula for the ships though I can offer one its the same with flying, if you head straight towards a direction you'll always be faster than going sideways but, at the end of the day, this is Star Wars, not everything needs explaining. I mean, just look at Rise of Skywalker
i like to think of real- and hyper-space as being different but not separate dimensions. large enough objects are present to some degree in both - for example, at the end of TLJ when Holdo uses hyperspace ramming. yes, Snoke’s ship in real space is destroyed, but so is the Raddus - which is in hyperspace. clearly there is some interaction between the two dimensions. a nice analogy for this (i literally made this up off the top of my head haha) is imagine the two dimensions as two sheets of paper lying on top of each other. if you write on the top one but press very lightly, it won’t really affect the bottom. but if you use more force (are a larger object like a capital ship or a planet), it will leave an indent on the bottom sheet as well. idk if this is supported by actual canon/legends lore, but it works for me.
@@DrX-dh6th Kinda. Mass shadows from the realspace objects can interact with objects in hyperspace. That's how Interdictors work. I suppose reverse can also be true under certain circumstances.
Bag Man Except Holdo never collided into Snoke’s mega destroyer while in Hyperspace. She smashed into it while _accelerating_ into hyperspace. The ship was still in real space when the collision occurred. She was basically at point blank distance. Big difference.
Not in Legends. "Timetravel" is only possible into the future. The mentioned Sith ship basically got put into stasis/time-dilated for 5000 years. So yeah nothing lore-breaking.
If Star War's hyperspace horror was terrifying enough and it happens rarely, just remember those guys travelling in Warp that any moment the Gellar field suddenly turned off randomly while traveling.
Halo's slipspace dimension is also terrifying, you are one malfunction away from becoming nothing or if you are entering or exiting slipspace, becoming a bomb
My headcanon is that hyperdrives are built to *hold* you in hyperspace, like holding down a rubber duck under water, and if the hyperdrive fails or loses power, then you get forced out of hyperspace. This type of hyperdrive could exist alongside one that fully transports you into hyperspace, and require more expensive maintenance.
A long while i learned that there's a shadow of your ship behind you throughout hyperspace and any loss of conditions for maintaining hyperspace can cause your shadow to catch up with you, with catastrophic results for your ship.
Finn the former Imperial janitor, who we only ever saw "flying" a glorified speeder, is apparently the go-to expert on the likelihood of a Holdo manoeuvre being successful.
What does that even mean? Anti-force? so theres this force that exists within all of us, all around us? then the anti-force would just be.... Non-existant? how tf does it even work? how does anti-matter even work?
@@justanuff Well the short version is that matter is made up of atoms, atoms are made of protons which have a positive charge, electrons with a negative and neutrons which you probably guessed are neutral. Antimatter protons and electrons would be reverse. When matter and anti matter come into contact, they annihilate each other and are converted into tremendous amounts of energy. My idea for the anti Force would be similar, core aspects of it would be the inverse of the force. Perhaps an anti-force Jedi would need to use their emotions to access the light side, while anti matter Sith would need a calm focus.
@@heavyarms55 Yeah it still doesn't make any sense to me. In any case I don't think the "anti-force" could exist in any tangible way inside the star wars universe, apart from being in an alternate dimension/universe where the rules of physics are completely different to our/star wars own. Idk, guess I'm not that smart.
Wasn't there a scene in the first TCW season where a ship was stuck in hyperspace and they reverted it to realspace by cutting the power? Classic turn it off and on again fix.

@@doemacmonkey Exit Point, If I am remembering it right, You cant have shields up in hyperspace, so the moment they enter Real space they are allready in a minefield, with Mon calamari Ships en route.
there is sooo much novel potential here that its exciting. imagine a story in which a small rebel force comes across a trapped in hyperspace star destroyer and the terrifying flesh eating space madness crew thats on it, awesome
Same as our universe, same as our planet. Scientists have estimated that through all the life span of the universe it will only be able to support life for 0.06% of its existence, with things such as Stars, Planets etc disappearing around the same time. Most of the universes life span will be spent as an eternal pit of darkness inhabited by only black holes which will be the only energy left in the universe, once those black holes finally die out the universe will reach absolute zero and not even atoms could be able to move, and their is when time and the universe ends.
Since we’re talking about hyperspace malfunctions, let’s also talk about slipspace anomalies. It’s been mentioned in Halo lore than crewmen on UNSC ships have outright disappeared while in slipspace. And are never seen or heard from again. There’s also the unpredictability of slipspace that has seen portions of UNSC fleets arrive days or even weeks apart despite having jumped together.
I like to think that even the charted regions are quite unknown in the galaxy. Anywhere you get stranded in space you'll get detected on the radar by unruly pirates, smugglers and what not
I'm glad you stated with hyperspace being a second dimension, because that's what I tell people when I say the end of episode 8 isn't possible. They always tell me I'm wrong and it's just super fast.

Clone wars clips.... oh the nostalgic love/hate relationship I have with them. So painful to watch due to “certain events” but so nice and nostalgic and lovely. Seeing Plo and Ahsoka stand together and look at Grievous escaping is really emotional for me.
I wish there was some legends thing where a star destroyer fleeing rebels makes a hyperspace jump with a damaged engine, and leapt couple years into the future to the point where they realize: The emperor lost and the rebels won and they try to find a way to inform the past but are taken out or captured by the new republic and deemed as a delusional crew from the outer rim or unknown regions, or maybe chalked up as just a weird occurrence
going to the past AFTER they won would be a terrible idea. you might make it better, but you could also make it worse! Besides, if the rebels can do it, guarantee the imperials would too. and then it'd devolve into star trek levels of plot hackery.
Commander: "What's that noise? Sounds like something bouncing off the hull?" Second-in-command: "The natives are firing crude projectile weapons at us, sir!"
This reminds me of the lore of whitchspace in elite dangerous (though I haven’t actually watched the video yet), where people would hear whispers or see hallucinations, or get stuck in witchspace
For me that was "Three Robots", which would make no sense, so I'm going to assume you meant "Beyond the Aquila Rift". (Netflix puts the episodes in different orders for different viewers.)
Considering the state of the galaxy from about _22BBY to at least 35ABY*,_ getting catapulted into the future sometimes wouldn't be a bad thing. Imagine a ship full of Jedi getting lost in 50 BBY and tuning up in 50ABY - they'd be so lucky. *[Clone Wars start date to the End of the First Order… basically every Star Wars film].
If this is Canon, at least there would be better Jedi in the area than a Mary Sue. If this is Legends... well, they'll notice the Galaxy is a VERY different place after the Yuuzhan Vong War.
From what I've heard the hyperdrive of the Tantive IV was malfunctioning/broken and that caused it to leave a trace while travelling through hyperspace which is how the empire found them so easily
I thought they answered that with the 'last known trajectory' thing in Rogue One. Now that I think of that tho, it doesn't make sense. That method would only work if ships always traveled in straight lines. Hyperspace lanes are not straight lines. They're more like freeways.
In current physics, FTL travel is impossible. But in theory, the way the math works, if you managed to break the light barrier using an infinite amount of energy, you would continue to accelerate in the opposite direction until you reach twice the speed of light with no additional effort. Essentially, the less energy you put in to acceleration, the faster you go. You would then need the same amount of energy to in order to decelerate slower than light. If the light barrier was a form of another dimension, since it breaks the current physics of our dimension, then I think it would be more accurate to say that you could be stranded in the FTL dimension if you got ejected or had a malfunction.
getting lost in the middle of nowhere is probably the most common mishap from hyperdrive breaking actually. Cause with the amount of time hyperdrives have been around if they were crashing into and destroying planets there would be a lot of evidence of it. Maybe flying into stars would explain it but space is huge you are far more likely to end up in the void between systems than hitting anything.
there's an even rarer critical miss where a star destroyer fleeing from endor ended up in narnia. knowing the true horrors of woodland creatures, hilarity ensued :-)
Fives 2016 an unpublished Legends novella explains that those hyperspace wraiths, ghosts, and demons are actually the dark spiritual essence of an ancient race that left the galaxy eons ago. Once they committed sins against The Celestials they tried using their sciences to purge their society of "sin" but throughout future generations the undesirable and evil traits that come with sin arise once more. They would purge their society's souls several times while going on a mass exodus fromst the main galaxy. By doing this they created the horrible entity known as "The Darker" and the demonic creatures that plague hyperspace like Starweirds, Force Wraiths, and "ghosts"...
@@kabob0077 but those creatures pale in comparison to the hellspawn and twisted creations that dreadfully wait in Otherspace. If anyone thought Darth Vititate/Valkorion was OP then it must be truly terrifying to realize countless entities like him exist in Otherspace holding unflinching power over their deplorable interstellar kingdoms. In an ancient conflict called The Comsic Wars between the creations of The Celestials and the stygian armies/eldritch horrors of Otherspace, the galaxy (and its satellites) were irreparably devastated. The demonic armies of Otherspace that invaded the normal galaxy for the sole purpose of conquest, genocide, and suffering seemed endless. These baleful beings caused such unholy chaos and devastation to the galaxy that the Living Force was said to have screamed in pain. And during all this time, the prideful and corrupted human race had finally adapted to life amongst this new galaxy (universe). And through their unprecedented achievements and atrocities, the galaxy would forever fear them. I might get a little carried away with all this lore being thrown up at you guys.

In Season 4, episode 4 of Rebels, the Empire purges their escape pods from the cargo vessel to keep Saw Gurrero from escaping.

In the old games, ships usually had a backup hyperdrive, albeit much slower than the standard ones. So you could still have a back up but be in a place where your supplies would run out before you could arrive at a planet.
Now the Traveller series game had it worse. No back up, high fuel requirement to jump and a very limited jump range. In Star Wars a misjump might take a couple of weeks to get back from (assuming just a misjump and not total engine failure). In Traveller it could take months to get back IF the jump drive wasn't destroyed and IF you could find or harvest fuel. In a void space, time to roll up new characters.
Thane36425 yeah the backup hyperdrive is how Han Solo got to Bespin in ESB if I remember correctly.
tf why is this the top comment
@@phantom1100 Right. In game terms it would have been a low trip. The range he mentioned was fuel and other supplies. I don't recall if the game had fuel seperate or if all consumables were lumped into on stat, since each ship had such a rating in terms of days to months.
And that’s why you have such contingencies as a backup hyperdrive, or if all else fails, a carbonite freezer.
Suspend crew, shutdown systems to bear minimum capacity, drop an emergency beacon and say a prayer as you drift into an indefinite ice nap.
Just to point out, today is the one year anniversary of “Battle of the Dreadnoughts.”
Seriously, with the quarantine in place, this would be a great time to get the crew together for some sort of fundme type thing so we can get the second half of that battle animated!
Today is the 27th. The anniversary is the 29th.

Excellent movie... But it needed space Dinos(*dino crisis 3). But definately no space horses(*will not speak its name 3)
I wonder if someone traveled somewhere and could find all the ships that where lost to hyperspace failure and see endless ghost ships
In the West End Games book you found at least some of them. The Charon had found them first though. Think giant spider-like and extremely genocidal monsters who also liked unpleasant medical experiments.
Katana Fleet 2.0? :3
Battletech (since we're talking about other series) has something like that.
Dark nebulae that are filled with jump ships of various time periods. You could be playing in the 3rd succession war, and run into early Star League ships... But that's not all. You could also run into Clan Jumpships form the invasion period... You could also run into your own Jumpship. With a chance that the crew *your crew* are still alive... Most likely they be dead. Because that's the way of Jump malfunctions.
Thane36425 in an unpublished Legends article and novella it is explained the true depravity and horror that lurks in Otherspace AKA: Dark Illathurion. The Charon actually inhabited a single star system that was dreadfully close to a violent black hole and over decades of observation by its people and the realization that they'd never be able to escape their sector of space due to it, the race of insectoid people went mad. The dark entities (things like Vitiate/Valkorion) that lurk within Dark Illathurion wasted no time in twisting the already broken minds of the Charon until they all but physically resembled the Yuuzhan Vong and worshipped death and destruction. Planets in the same solar system with life were eventually invaded and sterilized by the insane race and firmly believed after their campaigns that they had exterminated all life in their galaxy. Proven false by a wormhole that lead back to the original galaxy, the Charon hardened their resolve to exterminate all life that existed on the other side of the portal. Had they not been blasted back into that hellish dimension by the very few sane Charon and New Republic, the eldritch horrors that lurk in Otherspace/Dark Illathurion would have eventually escaped and brought unspeakable bloodshed and chaos across the galaxy. Another cosmic war would have erupted and this time, the guidance of The Celestials and untainted Firstborn races would not be of service. The galaxy would bleed out in agony and truly die...
@@blackshogun272 That was mentioned as their goal and was part of the reason they were gathering misjumped ships, trying to find a way to real space. The characters weren't the only ones there. Some Imperials were there, too. I don't want to give it away of anyone plays the game, but they were very interested in him. If I recall, their scientists also offered to essentially turn the characters into Charon through surgery if they wanted it. We declined.
Hyperdrive failures or improper calculations can result in collisions with hyperspace shadows, a sort of reelection of mass from an object in realspace. This is why you have to follow lanes, even when there appears to be a straight shot from one system to another. This is also how interdictors work, by generating so much mass that they create hyperspace shadows inside a lane. One of Naga Sadow's ships made an emergency jump to avoid a collision without first plotting a course and collided instead with a hyperspace shadow, forcing her back into realspace. She shook up an engine and crash-landed on a tribal moon in the middle of nowhere, to be stranded for all eternity
and formed a sith tribe
@ANONYMOUS he's referring to the ship
Oh I guess she's just fine and its all stories. I saw a guy jumped 5 times and nearly crashed into planets to lose some tie's without calculation
@@cheesenaut6621 My buddy Eric did that too
Warhammer 40k : *Laughts in the warp*
Most hyperdrive ships had a backup hyperdrive for malfunctions, the millennium Falcon had a backup 10 hyperdrive. Not as fast as it's .5 hyperdrive, but fast enough to get to the next planet that will sort out your ship. Sort of like a spare tire.
Are you sure about that? The Millennium Falcon is heavily modified and is not the standard ship. I'd expect it to have a backup hyperdrive. The Acclamator class assault ship don't have a secondary backup hyperdrives
Smaller ships like starfighters probably don't have a backup.
I played that West End "Otherspace" module back in the day. Basically your hyperdrive failed and you were in otherspace and quite near a Charon base. It was surrounded by many other ships that had had hyperdrive failures, too. You had to go around looking for parts to fix your ship and naturally that meant going into the base. It was tough but we had good shooters, blasters, and armor (a team of bounty hunters/merchants/rebel spies). We got the parts, managed not to lose anyone and escaped.
So hyperspace is travelling into and out of a dimension, I always thought it was just travelling really really fast in space. Makes sense now cuz there would be a 9/10 chance you would hit a space rock or something.
Well, no, you would still hit the rock, because there are "hyperspace shadows"- projections of real space matter into hyperspace.
You would. This was shown a number of times in the Clone Wars to be a danger. Not to mention in The Last Jedi.
Non canon video.... There's no "dimension" of hyperspace. There's only very fast travel that requires super exact navigation as mentioned by Han Solo.
Hyperspace is more of a Hyper highway set routes that are deemed safe to travel through. Going into hyperspace into something doesn’t make you invincible for example in Rouge One a ship is seen in the battle of scarif that goes into a Star Destroyer by mistake while going into hyperspace and gets annihilated on impact.
@@CommanderSuberox the takeoff from Jedda was pretty cool tho.
Or... you have the luck of my character and make a blind jump trying to escape the faction you were just aggressively removed from, and get launched 5 months into the future, just shortly after their collapse, then you were just stuck dealing with everything
If a hyperdrive colison could destroy a planet . Why did the empire need a death star
@Mr. House us make hyper drive missals. The last Jedi addressed the banther in the room
The Empire was STUPID.
Just make a bunch of Hyperspace missiles and put them in Star Destroyers.
Boom. Galactic Domination achieved.
But imagine how easy Space terrorism is. One ship with a hyperdrive can kill BILLIONS or even TRILLIONS of lives, and you can do nothing to stop it.
@Mr. House Just make a hull of metal, chuck a hyperdrive and a remote controller or a control droid on there, done.
I thought originally you'd get spit out of hyperspace (violently) if you got too close to a gravity well, and ships could generate artificial gravity wells (that was how ships had gravity on the inside and how hyperspace denial worked) ?
@ee eee 's point is good in star wars we can see that hyperdrives are cheap, you can afford to put them on fighters. If it is possible to hit a planet, we should be seeing it all the time. 2 or 3 X-wings hitting a light speed would be plenty to cripple a planet.
I was today years old when I found out that Star Wars’ hyperspace is another dimension, like in Warhammer. I always thought it was just traveling at light speed.
Yea, but in star wars they don't go through super hell with the risk of getting raped by giant slaaneshi tentacle monsters
@@destrorso2505 This would make a good hentai

One of my favorite lines from Halo is the line from Reach about a civilian ship's slipspace drive was mounted improperly and "teleported half of the ship into oblivion."
In the Stark Hyperspae War, Iaco Stark uploads a navcomputer virus to the republics' ships' computers, so when they exit hyperspace they end up crashing into planets, stars, black holes or just places so far away from the known galaxy its is impossible to return at sublight speed.
Hyperdrives have a safety lockout that prevents you from going to hyperspace, and (rather violently) drops you from hyperspace, if you're too close to a gravity well. All you have to do is disable that.

Actually there is some sort of hyperspace barrier on the edge of the galaxy. Any ships that attempt to go past that barrier are either never seen again or are sent back without their crew.
Reactions to hyperspace travel/Warp travel accidents for various races in Star Wars and 40k:
- humans and other species in Star Wars: "This will not end well"
- humans (mostly them) in Warhammer 40k (demonic incursion aboard the ship): "OOOOH NOOOOO!"
- Orks in Warhammer 40k (demonic incursion aboard the ship): "Look Boyz! Ere komes our entertainment!"
Totally accurate
*Doomguy wants to know your location*
humans in Halo: "OH FUCK, TODD JUST DISAPPEARED FOR NO REASON AND SOMEONE JUST TURNED A SLIPSPACE DRIVE INTO A BOMB, THAT SHIP'S BEEN FUCKIN' TELEPORTED INTO OBLIVION!"

WAAAAAAAAAGHHH!!
If I remember correctly that Sith ship dint really "travel to the future". Instead the malfunction caused it to move at near light speed without entering hyperspace. The crew reacted almost immediately and shut it down but time dilation did it's thing and over 1000 years passed in the meantime.
In Legends, here was an Old Republic Jedi and his (soon-to-be turnt) Apprentice that were in a ship that had a hyperspace malfunction, and time traveled from ~2900 BBY all the way to 41 ABY. Was one of Wookiepedia's featured articles the other day and it seemed very bewildering for the two, suddenly being in a time so much different from their own.

It will just lose energy overtime until it completely burns out and disappear
As the other two mentioned it'll burn out, the real question you should be wondering is what happens to all of those rockets that miss their target and sometimes are hurtling towards the orbits of planet like in the case of the battle of coruscant.

6:54 genuinely though he was going to say "Perhaps being haunted by Wrai- D SHADOW LEGENDS"
But, if Hyperspace is a separate dimension, then why did the Malevolence navi-computer have to go around the Kaliida Nebula to reach the Republic medical facility in the episode Shadow of Malevolence? Further, why is the Nebula in non hyperspace travel actually a faster, albeit more dangerous, route than the hyperspace alternative?
Because, as we've seen before, even if you do hyperdrive through something, you still go through that thing.
For instance the Malevolence jumps straight into a moon, and Holdo jumps into the big ol star destroyer.
You still interact, just at super speeds.
Now I can't explain fully why it would be faster to go through the Nebula for the ships
though I can offer one
its the same with flying, if you head straight towards a direction you'll always be faster than going sideways
but, at the end of the day, this is Star Wars, not everything needs explaining. I mean, just look at Rise of Skywalker
Didn't the Malevolence had to recompute the next exact coordinates after each jump? Maybe it just took very long to calculate these coordinates.
i like to think of real- and hyper-space as being different but not separate dimensions. large enough objects are present to some degree in both - for example, at the end of TLJ when Holdo uses hyperspace ramming. yes, Snoke’s ship in real space is destroyed, but so is the Raddus - which is in hyperspace. clearly there is some interaction between the two dimensions.
a nice analogy for this (i literally made this up off the top of my head haha) is imagine the two dimensions as two sheets of paper lying on top of each other. if you write on the top one but press very lightly, it won’t really affect the bottom. but if you use more force (are a larger object like a capital ship or a planet), it will leave an indent on the bottom sheet as well. idk if this is supported by actual canon/legends lore, but it works for me.
@@DrX-dh6th Kinda. Mass shadows from the realspace objects can interact with objects in hyperspace. That's how Interdictors work. I suppose reverse can also be true under certain circumstances.
Bag Man Except Holdo never collided into Snoke’s mega destroyer while in Hyperspace. She smashed into it while _accelerating_ into hyperspace. The ship was still in real space when the collision occurred. She was basically at point blank distance.
Big difference.
You mentioned jumping into the future, does that mean that the technology could evolve to harness that power and go back in time?
Don't give Disney any ideas
Not in Legends. "Timetravel" is only possible into the future. The mentioned Sith ship basically got put into stasis/time-dilated for 5000 years.

If Star War's hyperspace horror was terrifying enough and it happens rarely, just remember those guys travelling in Warp that any moment the Gellar field suddenly turned off randomly while traveling.
Halo's slipspace dimension is also terrifying, you are one malfunction away from becoming nothing or if you are entering or exiting slipspace, becoming a bomb
the gellar field is not a machine, it' just some dude name gellar crossing his fingers
My headcanon is that hyperdrives are built to *hold* you in hyperspace, like holding down a rubber duck under water, and if the hyperdrive fails or loses power, then you get forced out of hyperspace. This type of hyperdrive could exist alongside one that fully transports you into hyperspace, and require more expensive maintenance.
Reminds me of the movie "Event Horizon"
Imagine a Sith Dreadnaught with full crew and compliment jumping to the Clone Wars era. That’s one hell of a fan story right there.
6:45 Ending up in the middle of a planet would be extremely unlikely. As you said the distance between planets is astronomical.
A long while i learned that there's a shadow of your ship behind you throughout hyperspace and any loss of conditions for maintaining hyperspace can cause your shadow to catch up with you, with catastrophic results for your ship.
Referencing the warp from 40k is the best part of this video
Finn the former Imperial janitor, who we only ever saw "flying" a glorified speeder, is apparently the go-to expert on the likelihood of a Holdo manoeuvre being successful.
It makes no sense, just like the rest of the Disney trilogy.

I've always seen the anti-Force being to the Force what anti-matter is to real matter.
It makes me wonder: what would an anti-Jedi be? I mean would just be a Sith with a different power source?
Light side dark side. Boom.
What does that even mean? Anti-force? so theres this force that exists within all of us, all around us?
then the anti-force would just be.... Non-existant? how tf does it even work? how does anti-matter even work?
@@justanuff Well the short version is that matter is made up of atoms, atoms are made of protons which have a positive charge, electrons with a negative and neutrons which you probably guessed are neutral.
Antimatter protons and electrons would be reverse. When matter and anti matter come into contact, they annihilate each other and are converted into tremendous amounts of energy.
My idea for the anti Force would be similar, core aspects of it would be the inverse of the force. Perhaps an anti-force Jedi would need to use their emotions to access the light side, while anti matter Sith would need a calm focus.
@@heavyarms55 Yeah it still doesn't make any sense to me.
In any case I don't think the "anti-force"
could exist in any tangible way inside the star wars universe, apart from being in an alternate dimension/universe where the rules of physics are completely different to our/star wars own.
Idk, guess I'm not that smart.
Wasn't there a scene in the first TCW season where a ship was stuck in hyperspace and they reverted it to realspace by cutting the power?

Most of the universes life span will be spent as an eternal pit of darkness inhabited by only black holes which will be the only energy left in the universe, once those black holes finally die out the universe will reach absolute zero and not even atoms could be able to move, and their is when time and the universe ends.

That is how the empire stops ships from entering hyperspace or forcing ships out of it.
Since we’re talking about hyperspace malfunctions, let’s also talk about slipspace anomalies.
It’s been mentioned in Halo lore than crewmen on UNSC ships have outright disappeared while in slipspace. And are never seen or heard from again. There’s also the unpredictability of slipspace that has seen portions of UNSC fleets arrive days or even weeks apart despite having jumped together.

I wish there was some legends thing where a star destroyer fleeing rebels makes a hyperspace jump with a damaged engine, and leapt couple years into the future to the point where they realize: The emperor lost and the rebels won and they try to find a way to inform the past but are taken out or captured by the new republic and deemed as a delusional crew from the outer rim or unknown regions, or maybe chalked up as just a weird occurrence
going to the past AFTER they won would be a terrible idea. you might make it better, but you could also make it worse!
Besides, if the rebels can do it, guarantee the imperials would too. and then it'd devolve into star trek levels of plot hackery.

Considering the state of the galaxy from about _22BBY to at least 35ABY*,_ getting catapulted into the future sometimes wouldn't be a bad thing.
Imagine a ship full of Jedi getting lost in 50 BBY and tuning up in 50ABY - they'd be so lucky.

If this is Canon, at least there would be better Jedi in the area than a Mary Sue. If this is Legends... well, they'll notice the Galaxy is a VERY different place after the Yuuzhan Vong War.
@@Masterge77 I want the Legends version, that sounds like an interesting story right there.
Resonance as intro? Instant sub.
Their are Two more dimensions that you forgot to meantion, “Mortis” from Clone Wars, and “The World Between Worlds” from Rebels.
From what I've heard the hyperdrive of the Tantive IV was malfunctioning/broken and that caused it to leave a trace while travelling through hyperspace which is how the empire found them so easily
I thought they answered that with the 'last known trajectory' thing in Rogue One. Now that I think of that tho, it doesn't make sense. That method would only work if ships always traveled in straight lines. Hyperspace lanes are not straight lines. They're more like freeways.

In current physics, FTL travel is impossible. But in theory, the way the math works, if you managed to break the light barrier using an infinite amount of energy, you would continue to accelerate in the opposite direction until you reach twice the speed of light with no additional effort. Essentially, the less energy you put in to acceleration, the faster you go. You would then need the same amount of energy to in order to decelerate slower than light. If the light barrier was a form of another dimension, since it breaks the current physics of our dimension, then I think it would be more accurate to say that you could be stranded in the FTL dimension if you got ejected or had a malfunction.
Wait, so you could "accelerate" to double light speed backwards? What do you know, Big Rigs got it right.
Glad everything's going well Eck, you're my favorite Star Wars Channel.
"All of the currently claimed videos have been released..." Ladies and gentlemen, we got em!
love the picture of the warp from 40k you used as the background for the thumbnail
Good Eck, goooood.
getting lost in the middle of nowhere is probably the most common mishap from hyperdrive breaking actually. Cause with the amount of time hyperdrives have been around if they were crashing into and destroying planets there would be a lot of evidence of it. Maybe flying into stars would explain it but space is huge you are far more likely to end up in the void between systems than hitting anything.
Yep. Space is big.

Those poor cards.

there's an even rarer critical miss where a star destroyer fleeing from endor ended up in narnia. knowing the true horrors of woodland creatures, hilarity ensued :-)
What about the 'hyperspace ghosts' ? Like I forget if they're actual ghosts or hallucinations from hyperspace madness
Fives 2016 an unpublished Legends novella explains that those hyperspace wraiths, ghosts, and demons are actually the dark spiritual essence of an ancient race that left the galaxy eons ago. Once they committed sins against The Celestials they tried using their sciences to purge their society of "sin" but throughout future generations the undesirable and evil traits that come with sin arise once more. They would purge their society's souls several times while going on a mass exodus fromst the main galaxy. By doing this they created the horrible entity known as "The Darker" and the demonic creatures that plague hyperspace like Starweirds, Force Wraiths, and "ghosts"...
@@blackshogun272 that's really cool thank you
@@blackshogun272 Damn, that's almost 40k man.
@@kabob0077 but those creatures pale in comparison to the hellspawn and twisted creations that dreadfully wait in Otherspace. If anyone thought Darth Vititate/Valkorion was OP then it must be truly terrifying to realize countless entities like him exist in Otherspace holding unflinching power over their deplorable interstellar kingdoms. In an ancient conflict called The Comsic Wars between the creations of The Celestials and the stygian armies/eldritch horrors of Otherspace, the galaxy (and its satellites) were irreparably devastated. The demonic armies of Otherspace that invaded the normal galaxy for the sole purpose of conquest, genocide, and suffering seemed endless. These baleful beings caused such unholy chaos and devastation to the galaxy that the Living Force was said to have screamed in pain. And during all this time, the prideful and corrupted human race had finally adapted to life amongst this new galaxy (universe). And through their unprecedented achievements and atrocities, the galaxy would forever fear them.
I might get a little carried away with all this lore being thrown up at you guys. I'm just very passionate (nerd) about the ancient history of Star Wars so much 😆
@@blackshogun272 Ever hear of the War in Heaven? In 40k it's the entire reason the Orks exist, the Warp is the way it is (minus Slaanesh, that's due to Eldar depravity Post War), the Old Ones (think race advanced enough to be gods but are also the Bad Grandfather to the whole galaxy) being gone, the Necrons' slumber (and their fall from anything resembling grace), and the Eldar's then vast Empire.
Also, here's something a follower of the Dark Gods came up with, the Daemonculaba, look it up and be disgusted.
In Star Wars Battlefront 2, in the campaign you sabotage a stardestroyer out of Hyperspace, efectively just ejecting the entire ship to normal space, just in front pf the Starkiller base.
But since there’s hyperspace lanes wouldn’t you eventually end up at the other side of the lane? Eventually at least?
Christopher Murphy except that, to simplify it, hyperspace is a different dimension of sorts. A hyperdrive allows a ship to change dimensions, and one that fails mid-trip might just not be able to shift you back.
@@nicholasfarrell5981 if hyperspace is a different dimension than real space than how come you can crash into stuff in real space while in hyperspace. this is something I never fully understood tbh
I personally think that hyperspace is similar to warp in that it's not another dimension but actually a kind of sub-space. Both means of travel can have ships crashing into objects in normal space on rare occasions.
Just my own personal opinion anyway.
@@nicholasfarrell5981 so is hyperspace like traveling through the nether in minecraft
@@patrickdonovan5554 Thigs of sufficient mass cast 'mass shadows' into hyperspace, which is what you crash into (or are dragged out of hyperspace by, in case of the gravity field of the Interdictor).
Reminds me of the movie Event Horizon. That movie still gives me the creeps
I really wish this was explored in the sequels. A cinematic display of this concept would be awesome.
I remember watching your videos few years back and I kept hearing the theme song Resonance by Home and I really liked it so I did some research about it like the name of title and who composed it and from that point on after listening to it I became addicted to vaporwave. That was the first song I downloaded on my playlist. I got almost 200 songs now I can honestly say I owe it all to you LOL!
U foles knows where it lead to,
*May the Emperor Protect us*
Where some of those ships are going, they won’t need eyes to see
They should make a Star Wars horror movie about the horrors that happen when you fail a hyperspace jump.
Perfect Star Wars horror movie
In Season 4, episode 4 of Rebels, the Empire purges their escape pods from the cargo vessel to keep Saw Gurrero from escaping. The ship is in hyperspace and the image of one being jettisoned makes it seem like it would possibly be destroyed. It may have just been returned to normal space, but it is not specified.
Event Horizon... Star Wars edition!
The outro made me laugh a bit thanks I really needed that.
