By doing so, this paper aims to show that George Lucas' space odyssey is not simply a tale but rather one important work that remarkably influenced the course of human history. To prove this point of view, the first section of the paper is dedicated to the introduction of the events that led to creating these films, the American mindset and the everyday life framed by the looming Cold War. The second section focuses on the technological development of the Reagan era, mostly putting emphasis on the Strategic Defense Initiative. The third part introduces the reader to newer technologies which started to rapidly evolve after the fall of the Soviet Union. The final section summarize the content. | |
