[QUOTE="Dannager, post: 24370992, member: 110277"] IIRC, the apparent Kessel Run contradiction was explained away in the Expanded Universe. The Kessel Run is now supposedly used to describe a smuggling lane that travels through a very dangerous zone of proximous black holes. While one can take the "long way" and avoid the black holes entirely, smugglers have made something of a bragging-rights contest of trying to traverse the Kessel Run black hole field, skimming as close as possible to the black holes without getting sucked in and torn apart. Thus, the best pilots and starships are able to [I]shorten[/I] the distance in which the Kessel Run takes place, by flying dangerously close to the black holes. EDIT: Woooo, my geek is best!
