"Falling Star" can be found as a comic story within Star Wars Tales 15, and it is also included in the collections Star Wars Tales Volume 4 and Star Wars: Luke Skywalker, Last Hope for the Galaxy.
Luke Skywalker and Biggs Darklighter, both young and yearning for an escape from Tatooine, even if only briefly, have bought passage on a GR-75 transport to one of the planet's moons. Their initial joy upon departing from Mos Eisley is short-lived, as an engine failure causes a near-catastrophic event, sending the transport spiraling towards the ground. Luke successfully repairs the engines, earning him praise as a hero, but the damaged shuttle is forced to return. Disappointed that his aspirations for space travel have been dashed, Luke heads back to his home.
