Starkiller (superweapon)
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
The Starkiller was a Separatist superweapon crafted during the Clone Wars.
[edit] Characteristics
It was a "hyperspace-point destabilizer," which meant that it could cause ships to dramatically shift course in hyperspace, resulting in them flying into black holes, stars, and other celestial bodies.
[edit] History
The Starkiller was destroyed at Kromus before it was allowed to launch and leap into hyperspace. Its destruction destabilized the tectonic structure of the planet, killing many. However, Darth Sidious thought the Starkiller data could still prove useful for another weapon project.
