    I mean, it’s in “a galaxy far, far away”, and pretty much all of Star Trek takes place in the Milky Way Galaxy - the only time they ever leave is in, true to its name, TNG:”Where No One Has Gone Before”, when the traveller sends them to M-33.

    It could be conceivable that anything that happened in Star Wars is just in a very distant part of the universe that would take millions or billions of years for any ship to get from there.

    Though honestly, I personally like to imagine that Tom Paris really likes Star Wars, but when he brings it up, everyone thinks it’s just another one of his campy 20th century films.

      I mean, it is, isn’t it?
