The Movies

Most visitors to Cloud City only see the gleaming corridors and pristine malls, and not the steel and steam-filled industrial sectors so vital to the city's economy.

Expanded Universe

Cloud City 's immense tractor beam generators pull in precious spin-sealed Tibanna gas from the depths of Bespin . The gaseous bounty is then channeled into refineries and stabilized in high-pressure press-chem tubes.

Behind the Scenes

Han Solo 's carbonized form was constructed from fiberglass. Early casts had Harrison Ford 's likeness at rest, but director Irvin Kershner wanted a more anguished expression of pain on Han's face. This necessitated recasting the molds.
