A '''lifebuster''' is an explosive weapon of mass destruction used by the [[Superiority|Krell]] to subdue the human population of [[Detritus]].{{book ref|Skyward|10}}
== History ==
The first time it was used was when the leaders and scientists of the [[Defiant (starship)|Defiant]] fleet all gathered in one cavern to discuss plans after the Defiant Fleet crash landed on [[Detritus]]. The [[varvax|Krell]] dropped a lifebuster bomb to destroy all of the computers and humans in the cavern hoping to set back the Defiant fleet indefinitely.{{book ref|skyward|17}}
During the [[Battle of Alta Second]] the Krell attempted to drop another lifebuster onto Alta Base, after the attention of the DDF fighters had been diverted by falling wreckage.{{book ref|skyward|53}} The Krell were given permission to completely destroy the human settlement on the prison planet Detritus.{{book ref|skyward|epilogue}} However, [[Spensa]] and [[M-Bot]] were able to use a [[light-lance]] to carry it out of the blast range of Alta and then make a [[Cytonics#FTL_Travel|cytonic hyperjump]] to escape.
