The goal isn't to wipe out all life on the planet, the goal is to annihilate the planetary body Sol III, a.k.a. "Earth".

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

A highly focused and insanely powerful laser should be able to cut the planet in half.  For example, the amount of light energy in a 40w light bulb, focused into a laser 1mm thick can burn a hole thru a book in less than a minute...  But the laser will most likely burn out before that happens ;).

I don't think destroying the sun would kill off the Earth. Our Sun is too small to explode in a supernova when it dies, but it will swell into a red giant, swallow up Earth and most likely melt it. Since the Sun will then begin to shrink, I'm not totally sure whether all of Earth will be vaporized or not. Either way, the natural destruction of the Earth is an inevitable event, unless we intervene by doing it ourselves.

Oh! I know!

Vogons. :P

This is not a signature.
You did not see this.
It was all a dream.
You will not tell anyone about this.

Now go and read this signature again.

So, you actually bothered to scroll down, eh? If you're that bored, you might as well take a look at the links above.

Sad. Just sad.  But I guess it's my fault.  I should have realized that someone would inject politics into every decent thread.

You're entitled to your opinion, I'm entitled to mine.  I'm not going to argue over it anymore.  I'm just not going to stoop down to that level.

Another thread bites the dust.

[color=66ff00]Dude you need to relax, we are after all in a thread that details the destruction of the world.

All of the suggestions on that website are theoretically possible, I threw in one that was blatently silly. How is it your fault BTW?

Was thinking out loud there, my fault for getting riled up and mixed up in political-ish threads, which it wasn't to begin with.
