Star Wars Engagement Photo Shoot

Photographer Michael James took these awesome Star Wars-themed engagement photos of a Bay Area couple who really, really like Star Wars. Featuring a pair sporting Sith and Obi-Wan Kenobi garb, James shot these two in various Lucasian action positions in parts of the forest near the UC Santa Cruz campus in the Santa Cruz Mountains.

Starship Comparison Charts

Sci-fi fans and space geeks of all stripes will appreciate the efforts of Dan Carlson comparing fiction to reality in this series of starship comparison charts. Looks like we have quite a bit of work to do before we’re up to snuff, but the possibilities, like space itself, are endless. Star Trek Minutiae offers a pretty good number of starship comparison images grouped by size.

The World's Largest Lightsaber Fight

Star Wars fans from all over the East Coast crossed lightsabers at New York City's Washington Square Park for what might be the world's largest lightsaber battle.

Newmindspace invited Jedi and Sith from all over to meet up at the NYC park, asking only that each participant choose either Jedi or Sith, and arranged a massive fight. They provided sabers to anyone who showed up unequipped.

The group expected 500 fans to show up, but that number quickly doubled by the time of the showdown. The Sith took one side, the Jedi another, and then they charged. The end result looks like nothing so much as a mid-1990s rave, complete with a slew of glowsticks. Check out a few of the images and video.
