Whats the point then the rebels hiding in this particular galaxy in the first place? ;)

Why not the empire not have patrols outside the perimeter? like it wasnt a plan that the rebels should mass outside a galaxy? Since the dude from ANH mentioned Ultimate power in the universe so they must know other galaxies "in" the universe. so i assume a fleet of stardestroyers can be OUTSIDE the galaxies and from there send the probes? (i assume no because behind the SD in the beginning we see a small moon

You can add some impressive unique planetary system (sullust maybe?) that fits to a typical clische fairytale ending. and there you have it. No science no politics just make it look awesome.. :)

I still prefer the idea that it's a forming star.

Thats the problem when similar things are lookalike.

dont forget the sunrise sunset debate ;)
