Coaxium is a very valuable and rare fuel in Star Wars that enables ships to go to Hyperspace. It appeared in the Solo movie as the main thing that they needed to steal. It’s rarity made it expensive but if it’s so rare; I don’t understand how ships can go to Hyperspace all the time. It would make sense of hyperfuel could be created artificially but their is no evidence to suggest that. It has to be mined. What do you think? Don’t you think scientists have tried to make synthetic coaxium? Is it too volatile to create?

I like the telescope idea but.


I want to make a story where the canon New Republic is working on a top secret science project analogous to the First Order creating Starkiller Base. It can't be something already depicted in Legends or Canon; so I don't want it to be teleportation, mind uploading, time travel, matter replicators, anything to do with the Force (unless it isn't blasphemous) or any other super-common sci-fi trope.


Does anybody have any good ideas?

I was asking for ideas on what a scientist could be working on in the Star Wars galaxy. However my list of can nots are more akin to what an engineer would be working on. Then I guess that’s what I really meant. So that being said I ask. What can an engineer in the Star Wars galaxy be working on?. He works for the canon New Republic.

Things he can’t be working on

1.) Dyson sphere- Believe it or not it already exists in SWTOR

2.) Matrioksha Brain- Computers aren’t that advanced. (HOWEVER, if you have a generic Star Wars name for this- I will take it. Matrioksha is Russian nesting dolls and would obviously not be applicable for Star Wars

3.) A Giant Underground City- Sullust has tons of these.

4.) Kransnikov Tube- Would be too much of a gamechanger for travel

5.) Ford-Svaitar mirror- Too much of a gamechanger for travel

6.) Nicoll-Dyson Laser- We already have the Death Star and Starkiller Base

7.) Space elevator- They have those

8.) Shellworld- Waste of time. Plenty of planets to work with

9) Alderton Disk- Too big

10.) Ringworld- Exists on Ringo Vinda

11.) Underwater cities- Plenty of those

12.) Any type of space habitat.

Any ideas?

My scientist is a brilliant human male working for the Canon New Republic and is eventually called on to investigate the sudden expansion of the supermassive black hole at the galaxy's center. However, before he is called away, he is working on something awesome and scientific. I've tried many ideas for what he is working on, but its all been done before in Star Wars. If you go on Wookieepedia; their are tons of articles about technologies like teleportation and time travel, many applications of nanotechnology, superweapons, star lifting, dyson sphere etc. I'm looking for something that has NEVER yet appeared in Legends or Canon. I know this is a tall order but I want to make my story special. I am open to any and all ideas (as long as they can't found on Wookieepedia) EXCEPT Matrioksha brains since I feel that we would be too powerful computing for Star Wars or pico or femtotechnology since frankly I don't believe going smaller than nano is necessary or even possible.


Any ideas?
