They already have a death star, you just dont know about it.

It's ok the Rebles are building a Milennium Falcon:

Star Wars fans around the world are coming together on the internet to construct a real-life version of the film's Millennium Falcon spacecraft.

Conceived by a US fan in Nashville, Tennessee, the Full Scale Millennium Falcon Project aims to use the internet to crowd-source efforts to build the famous ship, which will be adorned with all the trimmings aside from a working engine.

With the help of an intricately designed 3D model created by college student Stinson Lenz, a project contributor in Alabama has already erected the console of the craft as well as one of its two laser guns.

Project founder Chris Lee has purchased an 88-acre (35-hectare) plot of land in Tennessee on which the ship will sit.

He intends to use the "fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy" as a place to hold workshops for students who wish to learn to weld, paint or build.

The BBC's Matt Danzico visited Mr Lee in Tennessee and another contributor, Greg Dietrich, in Alabama.

LOL, 48 Million workers to mop the floors in a year....

This is the answer to our unemployment issues!

That's what droids are for.
Just have 1 droid responsible for the cleaning of a set floor place and away you go, it's just maintenance and upkeep requirements to have to employ for then.

This is true. Have you looked in the vicinity of Saturn lately?

That's no moon!

Why would we spend taxpayer dollars on a Death Star with a fundamental flaw that can be exploited by a 1-man starship? http://ofa.bo/yfxWt3

As a nation in trillions of debt this is just what they need.

 

[cavemanoc]

I wish some of our politicians would show some of the wit demonstrated by the US officials on this - sometimes it's OK to have a laugh over a silly idea!

Just hollow out a large asteroid and make it into a base, like they did in the game freelancer.

The response to this petition from the US government will be thus:


NO
