Some fans have said that it rotates too fast to be a galaxy and at that distance a galaxy would not emit as much light as is portrayed in the film. Some sources have said that the fleet spent some time hiding outside the galactic disk, probably intending to refer to this scene.<ref name="TEA" /> According to the [[1996]] ''[[Tales of the Bounty Hunters]]'' story ''[[Of Possible Futures: The Tale of Zuckuss and 4-LOM]]'', the object in the film ''is'' the galaxy, and the Rebel fleet had journeyed to a [[Haven (rendezvous point)|point]] in space far removed from the galactic plane.<ref>''[[Of Possible Futures: The Tale of Zuckuss and 4-LOM]]''</ref> This point was not outside of the galactic plane, per se, but rather above the galactic plane. Since the release of ''Tales of the Bounty Hunters'', the object has been inconsistently identified. ''[[The Complete Star Wars Trilogy Scrapbook]]'', first released in [[1997]], identifies the object as a spinning star formation. In [[2002]], the [[StarWars.com#DVD-ROM Exclusive Content|''Episode II'' DVD-ROM Exclusive Content]] stated that the bright object may be the [[Star cluster/Legends|cluster]] known as the [[Rishi Maze/Legends|Rishi Maze]]. In [[2003]], [[Leland Chee]] confirmed on the [[StarWars.com]] [[Star Wars.com Message Boards|Message Boards]] that the object was indeed the ''Star Wars'' galaxy,<ref>[[Leland Chee]] [http://forums.starwars.com/thread.jspa?threadID=118855&start=281 on the] [[Star Wars.com Message Boards]]</ref> which was reinforced by the release of ''[[The Essential Atlas]]'' in [[2009]], which established that the Rebel fleet regrouped at a point above the galactic plane.<ref name="TEA" /> Loading editor Standard preloads (select a template to preload its contents): Custom preload pagename: Insert: – — … ° ≈ ≠ ± − × ÷ ← → · § Sign your username: ~~~~ Wiki markup: {{}} | [] [[]] [[Category:]] #REDIRECT [[]] <s></s> <sup></sup> <sub></sub> <code></code> <blockquote></blockquote> <ref></ref> <references/> <includeonly></includeonly> <noinclude></noinclude> <nowiki></nowiki> Symbols: ~ | ¡ ¿ † ‡ ↔ ↑ ↓ • ¶ # ¹ ² ³ ½ ⅓ ⅔ ¼ ¾ ⅛ ⅜ ⅝ ⅞ Characters: Á á Ć ć É é Í í Ĺ ĺ Ń ń Ó ó Ŕ ŕ Ś ś Ú ú Ý ý Ź ź À à È è Ì ì Ò ò Ù ù  â Ĉ ĉ Ê ê Ĝ ĝ Ĥ ĥ Î î Ĵ ĵ Ô ô Ŝ ŝ Û û Ŵ ŵ Ŷ ŷ Ä ä Ë ë Ï ï Ö ö Ü ü Ÿ ÿ ß Ã ã Ẽ ẽ Ĩ ĩ Ñ ñ Õ õ Ũ ũ Ỹ ỹ Ç ç Ģ ģ Ķ ķ Ļ ļ Ņ ņ Ŗ ŗ Ş ş Ţ ţ Đ đ Ů ů Ǎ ǎ Č č Ď ď Ě ě Ǐ ǐ Ľ ľ Ň ň Ǒ ǒ Ř ř Š š Ť ť Ǔ ǔ Ž ž Ā ā Ē ē Ī ī Ō ō Ū ū Ȳ ȳ Ǣ ǣ ǖ ǘ ǚ ǜ Ă ă Ĕ ĕ Ğ ğ Ĭ ĭ Ŏ ŏ Ŭ ŭ Ċ ċ Ė ė Ġ ġ İ ı Ż ż Ą ą Ę ę Į į Ǫ ǫ Ų ų Ḍ ḍ Ḥ ḥ Ḷ ḷ Ḹ ḹ Ṃ ṃ Ṇ ṇ Ṛ ṛ Ṝ ṝ Ṣ ṣ Ṭ ṭ Ł ł Ő ő Ű ű Ŀ ŀ Ħ ħ Ð ð Þ þ Œ œ Æ æ Ø ø Å å Ə ə Greek: Ά ά Έ έ Ή ή Ί ί Ό ό Ύ ύ Ώ ώ Α α Β β Γ γ Δ δ Ε ε Ζ ζ Η η Θ θ Ι ι Κ κ Λ λ Μ μ Ν ν Ξ ξ Ο ο Π π Ρ ρ Σ σ ς Τ τ Υ υ Φ φ Χ χ Ψ ψ Ω ω Please note: No personal information from you is required to edit on Wookieepedia.
