How do Jedi fight with Lightsabers?

Fighting with lightsabers refers to several different martial arts that specialize in lightsaber fighting (but not limited to it). Special skills are needed for someone to master and take advantage of the specific characteristics of the lightsaber, such as the strange balance of the weapon, the entire weight of which is in the handle, as well as its ability to cut on each side. The most famous lightsaber fighting styles are the seven forms of the Jedi Order, although other organizations have created their own styles and methods.

The various forms of combat owe their unique focus and methods to the eras in which they emerged, as they were often created in response to a new generation of weapon technology. For example, the Makashi form was created at a time when the Galaxy was filled with dark Jedi and other users of the Force, and duels with lightsabers often occurred. Soresu, on the other hand, was created at a time when such duels were rare, and a Jedi was much more likely to face a blaster or other firearm than someone with a lightsaber.

The Millennium Falcon

The Millennium Falcon is the famous personal ship of Han Solo and Chewbacca for smuggling. The Falcon began its life as an ordinary cargo frigate YT-1300. Solo wins it from Lando Kalrizian on a card game. The ship experienced many adventures with Solo and Lando and therefore acquired this shattered appearance and played an important role in the Galactic Civil War.

What is the backstory of the Millennium Falcon?

In the year 19 Before Battle of Yavin, the ship was presented in the docks of the Galactic Senate Building shortly after the Battle of Coruscant, landing under a shuttle that brought Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Senator Palpatine into the abyss.

Shortly afterwards, the Falcon suffered critical damage after colliding with an asteroid. The wreckage of the ship dumped in an orbital depot is debris near Nar Shada. After a while, the ship was bought by an enterprising mechanic. Under his ownership, the Millennium Falcon was rebuilt from engine to hull and many different systems were replaced with better hardware. Although the repair is long and complicated, the mechanic does not give up and continues to work on the ship as a test of its dexterity. During operation, some components were replaced with parts from an older YT-1300, which was used for diplomatic missions, but had a similar fate. The mechanic gives the ship its name. The old name of the Falcon is unknown.

The Falcon briefly served its new owner for several years as an ordinary cargo ship before being stolen by a pirate. And so the ship passed through the hands of quite inferior merchants and was bet several times until it fell into the hands of the young Lando Calrissian. The ship's identification number was removed at that time to facilitate his new career as a smuggling ship. Many owners had made their "special modification" and so, when he came to Lando, the Falcon could now overtake almost any ship of its size.

Mustafar - the fall of Anakin

Mustafar is a small planet in the Outer Ring near the Ninth Quadrant.

Mustafar is a volcanic planet where valuable lava resources are extracted. It is also the last capital of the Confederation of Independent Systems and the place where it came to an end when Darth Vader assassinated the leaders of the Separatist Council. Mustafar is also the scene of a fierce duel between Darth Vader and Obi-Wan Kenobi, as a result of which Vader was forced to wear an armored mechanical suit for the rest of his life.

Mustafar is a young planet torn apart by the opposing gravitational forces of the giant gas giants. Locals travel by riding thick-skinned lavlhi to extract natural resources. The Mustafars run smelting facilities built by the separatists.

Jedi and Sith

The Sith Order was formed thousands of years ago when a member of another order, called the Jedi, turned to the dark side of the Force. Others followed him and became Sith, too.The Jedi are very different from the Sith. They, too, are experts in using the Force,but they are not interested in power for
themselves. Instead, they seek justice for all, and use the light side of the Force to maintain peace and order in the galaxy.Their opposing beliefs have made Jedi warriors the main enemy of the Sith.

The Sith believe that the dark side of the Force is more powerful than the light. Turning to the dark side can bring great power quickly, while the Jedi have to study the light side of the Force patiently for
many years before they are able to master it. The Jedi believed that they had destroyed all the Sith a thousand years ago. In fact,one Sith survived and went into hiding,determined to return stronger than before and wreak revenge on the Jedi.

Jedi Training

The Jedi Order is an ancient peacekeeping organization. All Jedi have to learn to live by the Jedi Code-a set of rules that they must obey. According to the Code, the Jedi must use the Force for good. They should have compassion for every form of life, and should engage in combat only to defend others or themselves. It takes years to become a Jedi Knight and so training usually begins at a very early age.

In order to follow the Code it is important that young Jedi, known as Younglings, learn to remain calm and focused in stressful situations. Younglings are taught to use lightsabers as well as techniques for fighting skillfully in a duel. At times their eyes are covered while they train; that way they can learn to feel the Force and use their instincts, instead of relying on what they can see.

Older trainees, called Padawans, also learn how to use the Force to move objects without touching them. A Force pull enables Jedi to bring something to them. A Force push is a powerful technique that repels objects or opponents. To help them in battle, Jedi must also learn to be physically strong, fit, and agile.
