I asked ChatGPT how many Nukes it would take to equal the power of The DEATH STAR

"The power of the Death Star in the Star Wars universe is described as being able to destroy an entire planet, which suggests an enormous amount of energy. However, it is difficult to give a precise answer to this question because the technology and principles behind the Death Star's destructive power are not clearly defined.

Assuming that the Death Star's power is similar to that of a supermassive weapon, such as a relativistic kill vehicle or a hypothetical antimatter bomb, we could estimate the number of nuclear weapons required to match its destructive power.

The energy released by a nuclear weapon is measured in units of TNT, with the most powerful nuclear weapons tested on Earth having yields in the range of 50-100 megatons (MT). The energy required to destroy a planet similar in size to Earth would be several orders of magnitude greater than that, estimated to be in the range of 2 x 10^32 to 2 x 10^33 joules.

Assuming a yield of 50 MT for a single nuclear weapon, it would take approximately 4 x 10^22 to 4 x 10^23 nuclear weapons to match the energy required to destroy a planet similar in size to Earth. This is an incredibly large number, far beyond the total number of nuclear weapons ever built or stockpiled on Earth.

However, it should be noted that the Death Star's destructive power is not solely due to the energy released by its weapons, but also involves advanced technology and systems that are not currently feasible or understood. As such, any attempt to compare its power to that of nuclear weapons is necessarily speculative and imprecise."
