sw.com hinkt mal wieder hinterher (nicht, daß das eine Überraschung für mich wäre):
Bantha Tracks #6, the official STAR WARS fan club magazine of the first generation, contains information about the scaling of miniature models in A New Hope, as told by Grant McCune, Chief Model Maker for the movie:
"The scale on the models ranged from 1:8 on the life pod and Lifepod Bay to 1:16 for most of the space vehicles to an incredible 1:180,000 for the Death Star (making the full size Death Star 102+ miles in diameter)"
Todesstern I hat also einen Durchmesser von 160 Kilometern. Dieselbe Größe hat er auch StarWars: Die Rißzeichnungen.
The July 1983 issue of CINEFEX <http://www.cinefex.com> contains an interview with Richard Edlund of Industrial Light & Magic, regarding the effects of Return of the Jedi. In this interview, on pp.7-8 he says:
" The Deathstar, I think, will be a lot more interesting than the one in the first Star Wars - mainly because it is under construction ... Plus, it will be MUCH bigger. In Star Wars, it was really difficult to establish the scale. It was supposed to be miles in diameter, but with a full sphere it was hard to tell. The NEW one is SUPPOSED TO BE MORE like FIVE HUNDRED MILES in diameter, but since we're not dealing with a sphere all the time, we'll be able to establish landmarks and get a better sense of scale. "
Diesem Interview zufolge ist der Todesstern II mehr als 500 Meilen groß. Was mit dem ITW:OT endlich bestätigt wird.
Schlußfolgerung: Die Todessterne waren am Anfang und sind jetzt wieder 160 bzw. 900 Kilometer im Durchmesser. Die ganzen anderen Zahlen, die dazwischen auftauchten vergeßt bitte schnell wieder.
