In a commentary track on the Star Wars Blu-ray release, George Lucas stated that ships in the Star Wars universe can't travel in straight lines while in hyperspace due to collisions with celestial objects. You can help Wookieepedia by expanding it. Peko-Peko Munzati and a few other pilots speculated that the route Solo used to achieve this feat was an ancient purrgil migration route. Īstrid Fenris speculated that Solo had flown the freighter between two black holes in the Maw Cluster, and therefore the credit for the run should go to the gambler Lando Calrissian, who owned the ship at the time and so had been responsible for any modifications that allowed it to survive the pull of the black holes. By doing so, Solo broke a long-held record. Han Solo, piloting the Millennium Falcon, made the infamous run in slightly over 12 parsecs, boasting about his ship's ability to endure shorter but more hazardous routes through hyperspace. The Kessel Run was a 20- parsec hyperspace route within the Akkadese Maelstrom used by smugglers and unscrupulous freighter captains to move spice from the spice mines of Kessel at the behest of the Pyke Syndicate, who relied on the foolhardy Kessel Runs to deliver the illicit substance to their customers. " Not if you round down, buddy." ―Han Solo and Chewbacca on Savareen " I just made the Kessel Run in twelve parsecs."
