When the Discovery lands in Houston after its space travels, the crew will be greeted by a group of Stormtroopers and other “Star Wars notables,” including the much-loved R2-D2, who will then deliver the lightsaber to a waiting line of Hummers. Afterwards, there will be a party at the Mos Eisley Cantina, where Figrin D’an and the Modal Nodes will play a set of their greatest hits.
