The white house has denied the petition of Americans with a proposal to build a "death Star". In the document, which was signed by 34 thousand people, citizens of States asked the government "to find resources, assign funding to begin the construction of the "death Star" in 2016".
Let's remind, "death Star" is a fictional combat spacecraft from the films of George Lucas "Star wars", are equipped with weapons of war emergency destructive power.
Note that in the framework of the project "We the People", launched on the website of the government of the petition, which was signed by more than 25 thousand persons, shall be considered officials.
Showing a healthy sense of humor, the White house issued a statement titled "This is not the answer to the petition, you're looking for"*where politely refused the construction of the spacecraft. To answer why the project is not possible, had the head of the Department of science and space office of management and budget of the White house, Paul Shawcross. Here are some paragraphs of the document:
The administration shares your desire to create jobs and strengthen national defense, but "death Star" will not appear on the horizon. Here are some reasons:- The construction of the "death Star" is estimated at more than$850 000 000 000 000 000 ($850 quadrillion). At the moment we make every effort to reduce the budget deficit, not increase it.
- The administration does not support the idea to blow up the planet.
- Why do we need to spend huge sums of taxpayers on the "death Star" with a serious flaw that can benefit the pilot single spaceship?
* - the name of the document echoes the famous phrase of one of the heroes Star wars Obi-WAN Kenobi: "these are not the droids you are looking for."
