    On the Endor thread, apparently some of the Death Star debris went through a small hyperspace wormhole to Mon Cal. Are there any more of these things..?

    That was from the Glove of Darth Vader stories, which suck... I would doubt it.

    Hyperspace Wormholes are just created randomly by gravitational disturbance in the system, caused by the nearby "Endor Gate Blackhole". They never open up in the same spot, and don't last for very long. But there are rumors that others were unfortunelty pulled to Endor, or sent from Endor by accidently falling into one of these wormholes(yes it's apparenetly 2-way)... This is info comes from Gamer #9.

    No, not said to be caused by a wormhole, but rather just the gravitational eddies that also exist around the planet, making traveling in the system, and the entire Moddel sector treacherous. The eddies are said to be the cause for most crashes on the planet, and the reason why it has such a wide range of sentient species.

    So are those related to those balls of light around Endor that transported Han to that one primitive planet in Marvel?

    Which story was that again? Which issue?

    However, it might very well behind the wormhole that transported Artoo and Threepio through time over Endor in marvel star comics. Though thats never been linked, and all we know is that that an accident with the ship, and Electron Torpedoes were at least part of the cause...

    Electron Torpedos

    Electron Torpedoes were developed by the famous scientist Grenn Drakvil at the Maw Installation. The torpedoes seemed at first to be a promising replacement for proton torpedoes, until it was discovered that the electron field generated by the torpedoes warped the space-time continuum. This was discovered when an accidental explosion sent the entire lab hurtling onto a little known planet in the Gordian Reach fifty years in the past. Grenn survived the trip, but the lab module landed on top of the Drakvil Estate, killing his father, and erasing Grenn Drakvil from existence.

    Following this debacle, Paldis Doxin attempted to have the funding for the Electron Torpedo project transferred to the Sun Crusher project, but Tol Sivron refused, stating that as the scientist leading the EPP project never existed, the Maw Installation couldn't have funded the project in the first place, and there were no funds to transfer. Doxin countered with the argument that since Draknor didn't exist, he couldn't have killed his father, and therefore must have existed and created the project, which the Installation must have funded. Draknor promptly reappeared, only to disappear again when Sivron repeated his refusal. Since neither Sivron nor Doxin had the time to devote to resolving the issue once and for all, they appointed two subordinate scientists to continue the argument indefinitely.

    During the Republic invasion of the Installation, Commander Brigg Takholm encountered two bedraggled scientists arguing over the existence of a third scientist, who seemed to pop in and out of the room. Takholm has been sober ever since.

    From the "Completely Made Up Guide to Weapons". ;) :p :D

    I actually thought that was some bizarre, canon, story made in the early days of SW, until I saw where it was from.

    I was also wondering what the author had been on... :p

    The info from the official LFL sources are canon, TC's info obviously isn't, ;).

    Talking about wormholes will just attract the wrong kind of crowd...
