In our Milky Way Galaxy there are 235 planetary bodies, of which 169 moons are in our Solar System. These 169 moons are the well documented satellite moons of the 9 planets. Jupiter alone has 63 moons. The challenge lies in how we can build atmospheres on them to support human life and all other living things. Also, we have to weed out the ones that are inhospitable. Which 1 is the Death Star? hmmmm...
Venus=0, Earth=1, Mars=2, Jupiter=63, Saturn=60, Uranus=27, Neptune=13, Pluto=3
The trick is to categorize them into planets/moons that either spin on their axis, or don't. Then, increase the surface gravity by inserting a Superconducting Magnet into the core. The magnet would range from 2 Tesla to 15 Tesla, depending on the amount of iron/nickel that is present in the core.
Finally, to introduce atmospheric gases into the man made electromagnetic bubble.

and this site tells us how to make an ATMOSPHERE on all the moons: http://www.atmospheres.5u.com/index.html...

It's Saturn. One of its moons, Mimas, has a large crater on it (called Herschel) that gives it the appearance of the Death Star from Star Wars.

Why 1 moon consider as star. There's uncounted numbers of stars. If there was no moon at all in the planet, would you call something else the dead star. Pity the Moon. Its the one and only Moon in the planet and yet they call the Moon the death Star.
