Use The Force

As part of the "Star Wars"' 30th anniversary celebration, NASA has agreed to carry the prop weapon into orbit and jettison it in space, according to collectSPACE.com.

Details will be announced in Houston Tuesday.

The lightsaber will be handed over to the space agency by Chewbacca at the Oakland Airport, not far from George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch, collectSPACE.com said.

It reports the priceless piece will be greeted in Houston by a group of Stormtroopers along with R2D2.
