If we’re still picking apart the physics of Star Wars, why has no one pointed out just how long it would take for matter from a star to reach a habitable planet (ie. Starkiller Base) that’s as far from it as we are from the Sun (we are 8.3 light minutes away)? Matter is not going to traverse the distance at the speed of light, and the appearance of the stream suggests it does not enter hyperspace.
