While filming on-location in Tunisia, the Libyan government became worried about a massive military vehicle parked near the border. The vehicle in question was a Sandcrawler. Sandcrawlers, or digger crawlers, are huge mobile fortresses used in the Star Wars universe. Their design was inspired by a NASA rover projected to explore alien planets.
The Tunisian government, however, extraneous (and probably not interested at all) to all these details, decided to politely ask director George Lucas to move the vehicle away from the border.
