NERD ALERT: Quick, dumb question -- how much time allegedly will pass between the end of Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith and the start of Star Wars IV: A New Hope? Because during that same time frame, presumably, infants Luke and Leia grow up to their early twenties (at most), but Old Ben Kenobi ages from his thirties, as Ewan McGregor, to being played by Sir Alec Guinness as "Old Ben Kenobi" as a forgotten septuagenarian.

Is there a break in the time-space continuum here, or is there a logical explanation to this?
