Legend

this was the name used by the New Republic to describe the Death Star-like construction discovered in a secret lab on the planet Liinade III. The Republic believed that Prince-Admiral Krennel was preparing to built the station, based on all the evidence it found in Valleyport. However, the lab had actually been set up in secret by Ysanne Isard, who hoped to undermine the efforts of Krennel and Isard's clone to disrupt the New Republic. Unlike the first two Death Stars, Pulsar Station was built around an array of smaller super-lasers, each of which could take out a Super-class Star Destroyer with a single blast. This allowed it to be more accurate than the second Death Star, while better utilizing the destructive capabilities of the super-lasers. In reality, there were no actual plans to build Pulsar Station. However, the Republic believed that Krennel was planning to built it into the shell of a large planetoid. When Mon Mothman announced that the Republic had discovered the lab and tried to undermine Krennel's efforts, he was sincerely able to rebuff her statements because he didn't know anything about it.
