Hey Buzz,

That was a really neat article about the Death Star. I still can't believe it requires over a thousand men to run the thing.


Thanks for sharing,

I didn't actually have time to read it, but according to the Essential Guide to Vehicles & Vessels book:

The station had a crew of over 265,000 soldiers. Gunners, ground troops, starship support crew, and pilots brought the total onboard personnel to nearly 1 million beings. Even more amazing, these figures indicated minimum crew standards.
