I had first seen the original movie long ago on TV when I was young, so it's been a while.  I don't remember seeing that.  Interesting.

Star Wars wouldn't need to take place in a parallel universe (I've never actually thought of that).  Star Wars takes place in a different galaxy, so naturally, Earth wouldn't be on the galaxy maps.  If they really are meant to be human, I was thinking that perhaps a group of humans in the Star Wars universe had possibly traveled to Earth and settled here.
