           DEATH STAR
Special Selection June 2009 This spherical moon size battle station produces the mother of all laser beams. The Death Star is capable of moving throughout the galaxy, destroying entire planets and spreading fear like a shadow of impending doom. 75 miles in diameter it has a surface like a metropolis full of detention blocks and interrogation cells. The death star is capable of housing a billion people and requires a million personnel to operate.

       AURORA BOREALIS
3rd Place February 09 The Aurora Borealis is an astronomical phenomena in which energetic particles light up the upper atmosphere with a luminous glow. It is understandable that tribes of the past tried to make sense of this eerie, awe inspiring affect! Over the years the explanations of teh Northern Lights have varied greatly:

Look, I didn't want to have to break this to anyone, but the Aurora Borealis is fake.
It was invented by the Canadian Governor General in 1890 as a way to promote tourism, and is created by spraying our clouds with kool-aid. Simple, really, but the hoax has taken on a life of its own.
The excess kool-aid is messy and kind of gross. It's wasteful, phony, and not that awesome.
reply
Actually, am I the only one who thinks that story makes it MORE Awesome?
reply
Science is so kool!
reply
The Death Star could have destroyed the planet of the Jar Jar Binkses, but didn't.
reply
It should have...
reply
I know! That's an epic fail!
reply
Totally, epic epic fail
reply
I think the fact that a bunch of personafied catfish were able to take down that many droids and not get blown up only increases a giant laser's awesomeness.
reply
If it did, it would have been even more awesome.
reply
yea lets all vote for queen of the mist now
reply
You people are voting for something that is used to efficiently kill billions of innocent people at a time. Sure, it is fictional, but you are still voting for a fictional floating planetwide holocaust device. Think about it.
reply
Sorry, much like Yorky, I have to vote against religious fanatic terrorists like Luke Skywalker, so the Death Star has my vote.
reply
Your logic has won me over. A vote for the Death Star is a vote for peace, justice, law, order, and the American way. A vote for Che Guevara is a vote for Luke Skywalker, Osama bin Laden, and the families of the victims of 9/11 who don't support the Iraq War.
reply
This is suddenly the best political debate I have heard in 10 years
reply
I actually noticed that there are no legit Death Star pictures in this slideshow. It must be so awesome, everyone just know what that is.
