Where to find evidence of Star Wars in historical documents
What if “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away….” was actually in this galaxy?
A website – ISWWR (If Star Wars Was Real) – asks this question and has placed evidence of Star Wars in historical perspective.
According to the website: ” ‘How much of Star Wars is influenced by real events in the past?’ To answer this question we began contacting historians, libraries and archives all over the world and were surprised to find that many of them actually knew of photographs or documents that could definitely be the ‘ancestors’ of objects and/or creatures in the Star Wars universe.”
Here’s a sampling of what has been found.

ISWWR… It appears #NASA used droids (possibly R2-series & protocol) as seen on reflection of the space-man’s visor pic.twitter.com/Cc0NBXnb
