I'd never really heard much about him before but man! He was incredibly integral for inspiring the classic ship designs we all know and love. Definitely deserves more recognition for his work!

Here's the interview.

Now if only some enterprising person would invent the technology necessary to convert oral conversations into written text form!!!!!

Guess I'm just a dreamer, too...

I found it very interesting that Cantwell’s concept model for the Millennium Falcon eventually got turned into the Corellian Corvette. Uncle George must have liked that one a lot.

One thing I like about the Star Wars saga are the planets, especially the ones wet with rain, hahaha! Kamino, Eadu, and Ach-To - all three of them have enormous amounts of rain, it seems. 😃
