It's going to be handed over by Chewbacca? Come on. It says R2's gonna be there, so why don't they have whoever's picking it up be like "R2! My saber!" and then have R2 launch the saber to him. That would be a lot cooler.

Are William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy going on this mission? If they were, this project would have my full endorsement, otherwise, it's just about wasting a perfectly good lightsaber, comped by the taxpayers.
