My 365, Day 177 - Fast Ship?
To a 7-year-old kid in 1977, the Milennium Falcon was a legend before I even set eyes on her in docking bay 94. Just hearing space cowboy/ smuggler/scoundrel Han Solo describe the ship was enough for me. The opening sequences of Star Wars portrayed a menacing view of space, a place where every move was controlled by an evil Empire. But when the Falcon blasted off from Mos Eisley spaceport, space was suddenly marked by adventure and freedom. This is the actual model used in that sequence and the entire original trilogy. And that, in a word, is awesome.
