The Death Star was the most powerful super weapon in the Galactic Empire's arsenal. It was a space station capable of destroying entire planets with a single powerful blast of its massive superlaser.
The Death Star was an Imperial space station shaped like an artificial small moon. It was operated by thousands of Imperial personnel and had a massive complement of Imperial troops, vehicles and spacecraft on its many docking bays and hangars scattered across its main superstructure.
Its final design and construction were supervised by Imperial weapons designer, Raith Sienar, from original blueprints captured from Confederacy scientists and weapon designers who crafted them during the Clone Wars.
