The famous line, “Fast ship? It’s the ship that made the Kessel run in less than twelve parsecs!” became one of the most notable lines in “Star Wars.” But while the line was memorable, what made this line truly stand out was the supposed incorrect use of the word “parsecs.” Referring to the Falcon as fast would constitute some word other than “parsecs” as a parsec is a measure of distance, not of speed. But while this issue has been debated for some time, I believe the statement to be definitively correct. The type of travel Han Solo refers to is related more to distance than to speed. Let me tell you why.
