It seems "Star Wars" fans do not need to go to a galaxy far, far away to see the Millennium Falcon in person, as Google has found Disney's hidden spaceship prop.
Google Maps has been used to spot the said spacecraft in the UK, and aerial photography has revealed that Han Solo's legendary ship is being kept hidden in a field close to Longcross Studios right beside Barrow Hills Golf Club in Chertsey.
Andi Durrant, the host of The Electrik Playground radio show, has also given instructions to fans. He said searching for Longcross Studios Surrey in Google Earth will reveal the Millennium Falcon's location.
To do this, people must go to Google Maps and switch on the applications' Satellite view. The ship is located to the right of Longcross Studios and is fenced by several metal shipment containers.
Otherwise, people can simply use this link to view the Millennium Falcon without having to go through Google Maps' instructions. It is still present at the time of writing but might get moved or covered soon.
Prior to this, an unfinished Millennium Falcon was also spotted near Pinewood Studios in UK, meaning it could have been built there and moved to Longcross once it was finished. A Twitter post by motion capture (mocap) specialist Stu Whitten on Thursday, Nov. 9, revealed the skeleton of the ship with barely a fourth portion being done.
The iconic spaceship was first seen on the big screen back in 1977 when "Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope" first premiered and has since then gathered much reputation, becoming one of the most popular vehicles in pop culture.
The Millennium Falcon reflects the temperament and personality of its owner Han Solo, who is rough on the outside but quite reliable. It is one of the fastest ships in the "Star Wars" universe, and it was also used by Solo for smuggling.
The Millennium Falcon will also be returning for service in "Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi" once the movie premieres on Dec. 15.
