Death Star's shield generator

"The shield is down. Commence attack on the Death Star's main reactor."

- Admiral Ackbar to the Alliance Fleet during the Battle of Endor

The Death Star's shield generator was an Imperial military installation on Endor during the Galactic Civil War. The facility housed the generator that powered the deflector shield protecting the Death Star II, which was being constructed in orbit of the forest moon. During the Battle of Endor, a Rebel strike team led by General Han Solo infiltrated the bunker that housed the Imperial shield facility and destroyed it. This lowered the shields on the orbiting Death Star, allowing the Alliance Fleet to destroy the battle station.
