What about this?  Load a Genesis device onto the Enterprise, arm it, and beam
it into the heart of the Death Star.  Or just fire it like a photon torpedo
from a safe distance.

Of course, it might be wise to make sure the warp drive is in perfect working
order before you do this, so Spock doesn't have to die again :-).

And about the Galactica...was it a big gun it had, or some sort of torpedo?
I seem to remember that the Atlantia used two separate torpedoes on the two
base stars as it passed between them.

Also, I seem to remember from a book that the Galactica has limited hyper-
space jump capability.  Once, I think, it dumped two fighter squadrons to
protect the "rag-tag fleet" and "warped" to another spot to release another
squadron to take out a Cylon installation.  Is this real?
