Han Solo warned about making quick, blind jumps into hyperspace in A New Hope, claiming that you could accidentally " fly through a star." Poe's perfect jumps were either due to random luck or they were plotted and he was lucky enough not to collide with any objects.

In doing this, Poe makes multiple jumps to hyperspace, coming out in different planets each time, to throw the fighters off his trail. In Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, Poe Dameron uses "lightspeed skipping" to evade chasing TIE fighters. This doesn't make sense from either a scientific perspective or a Star Wars perspective they're flying through space, a vacuum in which there's no air and obviously unable to create air resistance via the "air brakes." This inconsistency is one of several examples found in the Disney Star Wars sequel trilogy and falls into Clone Wars as well. Trace apologizes and says that she " left the airbrakes on." She flipped a switch and then the ship starting flying smoothly. Towards the beginning of the episode, the Silver Angel enters hyperspace and experience heavy turbulence.

According to the canonical definition, the visual warping of space simply means that the ship is entering the hyperspace dimension, not astronomically increasing its speed.Ĭlone Wars season 7, episode 6 features Ahsoka and her friends, Trace and Rafa Martez, making the Kessel run to the planet Oba Diah, but it began with them leaving Coruscant on the Silver Angel, a ship recently constructed by Trace. While the famous bending of light and distant stars signifies a ship going into hyperspace, there is no evidence that this means the ship is actually speeding up to "enter" hyperspace.

The Star Wars explanation of hyperspace is a ship entering a different dimension to travel vast distances, akin to a wormhole. Star Wars: The Clone Warsseason 7, episode 6, "Deal No Deal" is yet another example of the Star Warsfranchise confusing viewers with its depiction of hyperspace travel.
