This goes along with my question about if the MF had a docking port.
Does the Millennium Falcon contain some type of pressure or “space suit” that would allow a person to go outside the ship? In TESB they walk outside but thats inside the belly of the space slug and they only have a breathing device. In the blueprint it does show a “pressure suit”. I wonder if its big enough for Chewbacca to fit in?
Can anyone recall a SW show or book where they actually put on space suits and go outside into vacuum and zero gravity?
Sidenote - As I understand it Darth Vaders costume originally was designed to be a pressure suit and he would remove his helmet once inside.
There’s a Falcon “blueprint” that comes up online with a Google search that shows “Vacuum Suits (4)” stowed in an overhead compartment, helpfully near the top hatch.
I argue that the fact they were in the space slug’s mouth is moot. They DIDN’T KNOW they were in a space slug’s mouth and they left the ship with “street clothes” and the air masks only. So they were EXPECTING to not have to deal with vacuum even before they knew they were in the space slug. And that asteroid was in no way large enough to give them the expectation of atmospheric pressure.
I just assumed that the ship had some sort of sensors that told them that the outside environment had a safe pressure, but wasn’t breathable, and none of them thought to wonder why a mere asteroid had an atmosphere.
