To put that in perspective, the Sun outputs 400,000,000,000,000 TeraJoules of energy every second, which is enough to power a Turbolaser, but since the Star Destroyer has a couple hundred of those Turbolasers, the Star Destroyer would need to generate dozens of times more power than the sun to power those weapons. If that seems like bullshit, it kind of is. In conclusion, HOLY SHIT, that is one dead Reaper! This means the power of a single Turbolaser is enough to output 160,009,164,000,000 TeraJoules of energy, or 2.5 quadrillion Hiroshima bombs. The mass of that object is ~480,508,000,000,000,000,000 kilograms, and we would need 333,000 joules per kilogram to melt it. A cubic kilometer is 1 billion cubic meters, so 524,000,000,000,000,000 cubic meters of ice. Ice has a density of 917 Kilograms per cubic meter, so we need to convert what we know into cubic meters.Īn object of 1000km in diameter has a volume of roughly 524,000,000 cubic km. We know how big the ice is, so let's convert that to kilograms. Assuming the ice is already at 0C, you would need 333 kilojoules per kilogram of ice to turn it from a solid to a liquid. Let's be really conservative for simplicity. Let's see how much energy it would take to melt that. Imperial Star Destroyers are nearly 3 times the size of an Alliance Dreadnought, and is equipped with hundreds of Turbolasers and Heavy Turbolaser batteries. The power of a single twin Turbolaser, to say nothing of the 8-barrel Heavy Turbolasers that are the Star Destroyer's primary weapons, is enough to melt an ice moon measuring 1000km in diameter. The Hiroshima bomb was roughly 15 kilotons of TNT, or 63 TeraJoules of energy. An Alliance Dreadnought's main gun can fire a round with as much energy as 38 kilotons of TNT every two seconds, or about 160 TeraJoules, so you'd need a constant stream of energy well in excess of four times that to take down a Reaper. Reapers can tank the main guns of 4 Alliance Dreadnoughts before they even begin to lose their shields. Wikis Immerse yourself in game lore, tutorials, and more.
