Star Wars: Catalyst.

The Death Star is one of the most iconic creations of the Star Wars universe and it's history has slowly been added to over the years with Attack of the Clones giving us an insight as to where the plans came from and Revenge of the Sith ending with a shot of it under construction. But, what took the Empire 19 years to build it's ultimate weapon? Fans now have the answer.
