Summary
The Death Star begins to move around the planet toward the tiny green moon.
Guests
Notes
Film
- End of the rebel briefing
- First shot of Luke in his flight suit
Podcast
- Luke is in his filthy bathrobe during the whole briefing. It must still smell
- Discussion of womp rats
- Maybe Luke doesn't know what a "meter" is
- Bigger than 2 meters? Womp rats must be huge.
- Would it actually be that hard to hit a 2 meter-wide target?
- The 'gravity' of the situation
- Maybe there wasn't supposed to be artificial gravity and that's why there are all those bottomless pits.
- Call for science help from Ryan Haupt
Meta Minute
- 18:32 podcast episode length.
- Josh closes the show during his introduction
- Referenced: Han's comment about parsecs from minute 48
- The force of gravity at the Death Star (assuming no artificial sources of gravity) would be almost nil. Using the formula
g = G x m / r^2
, where g is the surface gravity (in m/s^2), G is the gravitational constant (6.674 E−11 N x m^2/kg^2) and r is the radius (in m), we can calculate that, even if the Death Star were a solid sphere 120 km wide (see minute 56) made of Osmium (density of 22,570 kg/m^3) you would only weigh 4% of your weight on Earth. If it were as dense as the moon, you would weigh a mere 1% of your earthly weight.
Quotes
- Josh: Womp rats are terrifying!
- Alex: If someone told me, "Two meters isn't that big. I used to... I used to hunt rhinoceroses from my helicopter." I wouldn't be like "wow you must be a great shot." It's a rhinoceros. How could you not hit a rhinoceros?!
- Pete: (as hick farmboy Luke) "I used to shoot animals."
- Alex: (in a different, hillbilly voice) "I used ta shoot 'possum with ma boomstick! In the back of my pickup truck"
