The Death Star

The Death Star was an incredibly powerful weapon developed by the Galactic Empire, intended as the weapon that would annihilate the Rebel Alliance. The moon-sized Death Star could unleash enough destructive power through its main weapon to destroy entire planets.

The original Death Star was used to destroy Princess Leia Organa's planet of Alderaan before it was destroyed by the rebels; in particular, by targeted explosives launched by new X-Wing pilot Luke Skywalker.

A new Death Star was built over the next few years, more powerful with an impenetrable defensive shield. This second Death Star was narrowly destroyed by a rebel assault, during which Lando Calrissian led an attack on the Death Star's core.

In the years afterwards, the Empire collapsed and the First Order was established in its wake who created their own superweapon known as Starkiller Base.
