I once read through (most of) an extremely detailed timeline of the prequels, original films, and the old EU that covered something like 10,000 years of galactic history, and ended thusly:
Quote:
+5,000 ASW4 (?)
An attempt by a spacecraft of the Star Wars galaxy to enter our own ends disastrously, and the ship is destroyed just inside our galaxy. A sea of debris flies out into space – including a copy of “The Journal of the Whills.”
+10,188 ASW4 (1973 A.D.)
After floating in space for millennia, the copy of “The Journal of the Whills” crashes intact on Earth. It lands in Modesto California, in the backyard of young American filmmaker George Lucas. Wisely deciding to keep its existence secret, Lucas secretly begins researching and translating the Journal, dramatising parts of it into a feature film screenplay. (He’s learning to translate as he goes, so it takes him four years and five drafts to get it right.) After United Artists and Universal balks at the project, 20th Century Fox agrees to produce Lucas’s dramatised work. He creates Industrial Light and Magic to reproduce the holographic scenes shown in the Holocron.
I am trying to find it, but it appears to be a dead link now.
