The Physics of Star Wars
The Physics of Star Wars is an accessible science book by Patrick Johnson that uses lightsabers, hyperspace, and droids as hooks for explaining real physics. Written by a physicist, it separates what’s plausible from pure fantasy while walking readers through forces, energy, relativity, and more. Parents of Star Wars fans appreciate how it turns fandom into STEM curiosity and makes abstract concepts more concrete. It’s best for strong middle-grade readers and up, and as a single volume it can anchor a fun, themed physics unit.
