The unseen passage of time happens a lot in ESB. e.g. In Echo base, we go straight from seeing Threepio in the control room to seeing him in the hangar.

this was mentioned some time ago, and I see it as a continuity error - bad cutting ("jump cut"), because better material wasn't there (or other stuff was "lost")

I think we need to see the asteroid in question, it is like the pointing out that Han did with the cave he had seen ...

better have a correction of model or inserted shot - not like the overdone flight the Falcon did to arrive at Yavin IV
