If I recall my statistics, the first Death Star was 90 km in diameter, and then the 2nd Death Star was about 120km in diameter. But you also have to think, the original Death Star was slowly built over about 20 years. I don't think anyones said the timeline on when the 2nd one was started...

Their Empire is reduced from what it was when Palpatine led it, yet they have the resources to build biiiigger superweapons. I mean, okay, Palpatine tended to do it on the sly, so all of his superweapons had to be built behind cover, and use of resources that could be hidden from the Senate and such, so that could technically be why he couldn't just go big constantly. From the sound of it, Snoke doesn't have to worry so much about that, just keeping spies and rumours from kicking off about his secret superweapons and the like. But still, how does he have the resources and logistics for managing all of this?

Handled the online pre-registration stuff for my return to university life. Dang. All the flashy "student portals" and "dashboards with apps" to handle all of this. Part of me is feeling all old man grumpy about this use of flash technology.
