Death Stars
DS-1 Orbital Battle Station
The DS-1 Orbital Battle Station[4] was originally designed by the Geonosians before the Galactic Republic and later the Galactic Empire took over the project.[2] However, the plans for the battle station were stolen by the Rebel Alliance from Scarif,[5] leading to its destruction at the Battle of Yavin, but not before it unleashed its planet-destroying powers on Alderaan.[3]
Death Star II
After the destruction of the first Death Star, the Death Star II was the second Death Star constructed by the Galactic Empire and was designed to be more powerful than the original.[6] During the Battle of Endor, the Death Star II also met its destruction like its predecessor.[6]
