    It’s fascinating how they were able to blockade something in 3d space with something that looked a lot like a 2d structure. Must be some Liu Cixin kind of shit going on there.

      I don’t think they have the concept of orbits in Star Wars. Damaged ships just happen to fall into planets all the time.

        A lot of sci-fi suffers from space ships hanging in the air in exactly the way that bricks don’t. Trek does it too.

        It exists but isn’t really shown for the same reason reasonable battle tactics are a super power in Warhammer 40k, rule of cool.

        They usually come out of hyperspace just above the planet so they won’t have orbital velocity.

              I mean it really looks like they exit at a speed of some sort and the rest is imagination, usually when a science hole is found in the space opera it is pretty huge
