Blast it Wedge, We’re Not Getting a Death Star
Well, its official. The Obama Administration has said no to a petition asking the US government to build a Death Star. On the “We the People” petition site, if a petition gets 25,000 people to sign, the Obama administration has promised to reply. There have been some really crazy petitions put forth – one person wanted to be named emperor, another wanted a statue built – but there have been some creative and meaningful petitions as well. Then there’s the petition to “Secure resources and funding, and begin construction of a Death Star by 2016.” Creative… yes. Meaningful? Probably not, but it certainly got a lot of attention.

Haven’t TPTB done enough to screw this planet up without a death star?
Still haven’t handed over Princess Leia! Try and focus!!! If we build it she will come!!!
A death star, I thought it was a joke and went and looked. People really do want 1, for what reason? I would rather a craft that can be used over and over, go from earth to space with out dropping pieces, and travel to the edge of the solar system at least. We can work on inter stellar after, lets first check out all of our planets for resources, make out posts on moons or planets and just explore the whole of it like they used to explore earth.
Yes I am one of those people who would jump on the Mars mission’s , or any other. Tho I could never do it after an accident I do not think my body could handle the g forces just to get up there. I can dream tho , and I do.
I think it was just going to be a mini-death star. For Americans only or something maybe. But:
“However, the White House rejected the petition on three grounds – cost, morality, and flaws in the project’s design. “The Administration does not support blowing up planets,” solemnly noted Paul Shawcross on behalf of the US government, adding “Why would we spend countless taxpayer dollars on a Death Star with a fundamental flaw that can be exploited by a one-man starship?”"
