Starkiller Base was a mobile ice planet that was located in the Unknown Regions that served as a stronghold of the First Order three decades after the Battle of Endor.
They may as well have written "just don't think too much about it."
dont worry - they built it using the force so as to help maintain the scientific realism the series is known for

why do people in (and the creators/keepers of) the SW universe measure time in earth years?

TFA takes place 30 years after Jedi

Yoda is 900 years old

Does every planet in that universe have the same exact length and frequency of rotations and revolutions around their suns as our planet does?

i suggested a star wars sub forum a week ago and it fell on deaf ears. RM modding is amateur hour as usual.

Let us know your thoughts and be sure to vote in the poll :)
Ok, saw it today. Loved it. Still not sure about how much I loved it. My first reaction is that it's on par with the original, but needed something more to get close to ESB.

I thought I should go back and read some highlights of this thread post-release before I say too much. any suggestions on where to start reading?
