Seismic charges were devastating weapons that drew sound in from their immediate vicinity and exploded in concussive waves of brilliant blue light, shattering everything in their wake.[1] Jango Fett launched several seismic charges from a deployer[2] aboard his starship, Slave I, while trying to kill Obi-Wan Kenobi during their dogfight in the asteroid field that orbited the planet Geonosis.[3]
Behind the scenes
Sound designer Ben Burtt describes the sound of a seismic charge an "audio black hole", where the sonic blast follows a moment of silence.[source?]
