Rediscovering "Star Wars"

I just read on Rebelscum.com, a famous Star Wars-themed website, at its page, that Dr. David West Reynolds, a famous Star Wars book author, launched a 30-day-long Kickstarter project to film a documentary titled "The Archaeology of Star Wars", which target is to rediscover the remains of Mos Eisley, Mos Espa, the Tosche Station, the Lars farm and the other locations in the Sahara desert used to film the scenes on the desert planet of Tatooine.

Many of these scenes from Star Wars (now Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, 1977) and Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999) were filmed beetween Libya and Tunisia and, during the filming of the 1977 film, when George Lucas and his crew were filming the scenes with the Jawa sandcrawler on the desertic border, the Libyan military ordered that the vehicle was ransacked because they thinked it was a sort of tank or a bomb vehicle from Tunisia!
