Dr. Curtis Saxton is an avid fan of the Star Wars universe with a particular interest in the technology of the Galaxy far, far away.

The first articles of the website went online in February 1995.
Dr. Saxton holds a doctorate in Astrophysics from the University of Sydney, with an inclination to spend his time discussing the potential of future technology. He is currently conducting postdoctoral research at the Mullard Space Science Laboratory, University College London.

[edit] Saxtonites
"Saxtonite" or "Saxtonism" refers to supporters and the methodology of Saxton and his work, notably the Star Wars Technical Commentaries. It is often used in a pejorative sense.
StarDestroyer.net is considered to be the most prominent community of Saxtonites, while a large number of vocal users on Jedi Council Forums of TheForce.net have considerable anti-Saxtonite sentiment.
