The Yggdrasil from Hyperion is the biggest I've read/seen/heard of, iirc.

No civilisation will ever build a dyson sphere,Have you calculated how much material would be needed to build one at the seize of earth,s orbit? the one from starwars is supposed to be 2500km thick. It is not viable at al for so manny reasons like someone else said earlier.

Pretty sure there's no Dyson sphere in Star Wars...


He must be thinking of Star Trek.

But on a star wars releated note. I found this lol ^__^

White House petition

In late 2012, a petition was submitted to the White House website urging that the United States government build a real Death Star as an economic stimulus and a means to ensure people got back to work again, and wanted its completion by 2016 at the earliest.

The petition gained more than 25,000 signatures, ensuring that an official response be supplied. In early 2013, the proposal was rejected (in a tongue-and-cheek manner), citing that the overall cost of the Death Star's construction would amount to a cost exceeding $852 quadrillion, and would take 833,000 years before it could even be ready for construction due to the rate of steel production.

Another reason for the rejection was also because the Government "did not support blowing up planets

Had to look up the size of a tree ship... But it is smaller than a standard Star Destroyer from Star Wars at a kilometer in length or so.

Where's deep space nine? Okay, it's not quite a ship, per se, but I'm sure it can technically move if necessary and it is fiction, so throw me a bone here


It can move a bit, they moved it towards the wormhole in the first episode. But i doubt you can call that a spaceship.

deep space nine is fairly small anyhow compaired to some of thoes ships, roughly 1½ km in diameters

The thought must have been that it wouldn't fit on the page

But seriously it would be interesting to see how far they would have to "zoom out" to add in the Death Star.

I'm pretty sure it's written as larger than planets, at least in the Cantos books.

Another huge one would be the spaceship (or whatever it is) in Childhood's End.

I dont see the Death Star or the mothership from Independence Day. Those are prolly the biggest out there.


If I remember correctly the independence day mothership was roughly 1/3rd the size of the moon. The deathstar is the size of a moon so I think they win.

The size of a small moon. the ship from independence day also shit out like 20 5mile across smaller ships iirc.

Yeah, and "A small moon" could be something like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deimos_(moon), which is a lot smaller then a third of our moon Luna, no matter how you measure "a third".

The original site has the death star, the Independence Day mothership, and others compared to our moon Luna.

There are footnotes explaining how he got the measurements and stuff too.

At 1.6 KM it would be fairly small compared to the biggest ships there.
