- Referenced: Star Trek.
- Chewbacca places the tool box in a very unsafe spot - another SWM-Canon#Chewbacca.27s_Life_Debt attempt.

- Gravity in the Star Wars universe.
- This pursuit is a common scenario for Han and Chewie and they seem to have flown into an asteroid belt before as well.
- Who's flying the Falcon at this stage? The script indicates that its Princess Leia.
- They don't slow down in the asteroid belt.
- In the Leigh Brackett draft script for the movie it is Chewie's idea to fly into the asteroid belt. Han then calls him "my hairy friend".
- The odds are approx. 3,720 to 1 odds - C-3PO clearly calculates all the odds and blames them on R2-D2.
- Random explosions when asteroids hit each other.
- Favorite action-based musical score in the asteroid sequence.
