The first Death Star was constructed on the orbit of planet Despayre. It was a tropical world on the Outer Rim used as penal colony, to provide forced labor required to build this huge WMD

Leaving so many witnesses was not an option, so the Empire - as a role model of totalitarian regime - destroyed the planet along with all the prisoners on it. Yes, this was the operational test of the station's technical capabilities, but since that world was far away and insignificant, the Empire wanted to test the effect of using its superweapon to destroy a populated planet on Alderaan.

I can write this, because that information was de-classified

You can see this scene in a classic LEC PC game: X-Wing

I saw the original theatrical release of the Old Trilogy on the big screen and I'm proud of it...
How did I accomplish that (considering my age) is my secret...

Death of Jar Jar? That reminds me of this animation I made a few years back. I had it visioned in my mind for a few weeks and could hardly wait for the DVD to come out so I could make it.

Jar Jar and Yoda

I didn't spend a lot of time on it, but most people still find it pretty funny, especially if they thought the same thing I though during this scene in episode II.

(On my computer at least, it will only play the sound and not video if I just run it from the page, if I click "save as" it plays fine with video)
