Abstract

In this paper we aim to investigate the visibility of the fictional space station, The Death Star, through the transit observation method of exoplanet detection. It was concluded that through ground based observation the Death Star could be observed orbiting small planetary bodies within our Solar System. Through more robust space-based observations the space station could be detected outside our Solar System about nearby white dwarf stars.
