Yes, but only because the death star is designed, and so can be deliberately re-designed. Darth Charta is right, carbon dating is a theory based on more than a dozen unprovable assumptions. Anyone who has faith in something like that really is blind. You're faced with so many contradicting facts. Carbon dating on freshly killed seals, and tree bark. Carbon dating fails miserably under certain known conditions, why should it be so reliable under unknown conditions? You're still left with the problem of the shrinking sun (then again there are some so-called scientists who claim the sun osculates shirking and expanding, back and forth and that it isn't really shrinking). The problem that "the world does not look old". As I mentioned before all life forms alive today, that by the timeline of evolution were alive millions of years ago, have not evolved. I even gave specific examples. When I hear evolution explain how fresnel lenses evolved into fish eye's millions of years ago (when, I might add it had to be invented, designed and created or we wouldn't have lighthouses today) - then perhaps it can hold water. However I know that fresnel lenses are way too complicated to have evolved in an eye. For the simple reason that the "in-between" life forms would not be able to see.
