While Star Wars: The Last Jedi came out in 2017, some fans are still finding Easter eggs, like Twitter user CorellianBlue, who recently brought up a hidden message from Han Solo to Kylo Ren's First Order forces. One of the bombs in The Last Jedi's opening has "Han says hi" painted on it in Aurebesh, one of the most used languages in Star Wars' galaxy.

The bomb sequence is during the opening of The Last Jedi, after the rest of the Resistance are evacuated. The evacuation is a success, and Poe sees this as an opportunity to take out a Dreadnought, despite General Leia Organa's orders to get his squad out of there. Unfortunately, all the bombers are taken out except one of them. Paige Tico, Rose's sister, is the last bomber standing, and despite several technical difficulties, she manages to launch the bombs, destroying the Dreadnought and sacrificing herself in the process.

The "Han says hi" bomb is on this ship, as is one with a smiley face. One of the destroyed ships has bombs with Aurebesh and images painted on it as well. The Last Jedi happens shortly after The Force Awakens, so Han's death is still fresh in the minds of the Resistance, likely leading to some of the bombers painting messages like this on their bombs prior to being evacuated.

While this Easter egg was recently brought up, it isn't the first time someone's caught this nod to the smuggler. Fans and readers of the film's visual dictionary saw the Easter egg when the film was released in 2017; however, CorrelianBlue's tweet has received more attention than previous citations because the film's director, Rian Johnson, acknowledged it by replying to the original tweet with a GIF of Han saluting.

Along with the director's tweet, replies broke down into arguments about the merits of The Last Jedi, as well as the validity of dropping bombs in space. While some thought this was ridiculous or impossible, others mentioned how critiquing a film about "magical wizards" for its lack of scientific accuracy was misguided. Some even mentioned how Star Wars has always had wonky physics, like when the proton missiles that blew up the Death Star in A New Hope changed course on their way into the exhaust port.

Meanwhile, others users mentioned how the bombers exhibited artificial gravity, like when Paige fell in the ship during the attack. Since there is artificial gravity, then the bombs would be able to be dropped within the ship, and once they're off the bomber, they'd continue to fall until they'd hit something, like the First Order's Dreadnought, at least according to some fans.

Along with these explanations, there's a canon reason why the bombs could fall according to The Last Jedi's visual dictionary. Based on the book, the bombs are "impelled" from their ship's bomb racks by "sequenced electromagnetic plates in the clip." This causes the bombs to be magnetically drawn to their targets, like the Dreadnought.

Regardless of how the bombs fall or what others think of The Last Jedi, it's always nice to see new details uncovered. While Han died in the previous film, his legacy left an impact on the Resistance, sending a cheeky message to the First Order in the form massive destruction.
