The Death Star was a gargantuan space station armed with a planet-destroying superlaser powered by kyber crystals. The DS-1 Death Star Mobile Battle Station, also called the DS-1 Orbital Battle Station, was originally conceived by the Geonosians before the Galactic Republic and later the Galactic Empire took over the project. However, the plans for the battle station were stolen by the Rebel Alliance from Scarif, leading to its destruction at the Battle of Yavin, but not before it unleashed its devastating cannon on Jedha City, the Imperial Archives on Scarif, and Alderaan.
