Of course there's air in space. How could we hear the ships otherwise? ;)

But yea, you're right about that (though that might be why it's range 1: it has to spray a stream of gas before arcing through it?). Star Wars plays very fast and loose with science. I still want to know how a few tiny solar panels manage to power a Twin Ion Engine with that much thrust; sadly the answer is magic.
