| In science fiction, a planet killer or Planet Buster is an object capable of destroying an entire planet or rendering it uninhabitable. One of the most notable examples of a planet killer is the Death Star from the Star Wars franchise or The Doomsday Machine, seen in Star Trek. Planet killers function in a variety of ways depending on the series. Weapons such as the Death Star and the titular ship in Lexx use a directed energy weapon capable of obliterating a planet in moments. In the game Spore, the planet killer is an antimatter bomb that is inserted in the center of the planet, causing the planet's center gravity to give away and split into countless little bits. Other weapons, such as the Shadow Planet Killer in Babylon 5 and Covenant warships in the Halo series, render a planet uninhabitable. The Shadow Planet Killer does so by firing missiles which burrow into the planet's core and detonate, causing planet-wide volcanic activity which renders the planet lifeless. Covenant warships use plasma weapons to destroy all sentient life on a planet, leaving no intelligent life behind. |
