Launch it anyway, whats the worse that could happen?

Somewhere in space , an oversized 160 km wide saucer is cruising by an unsuspecting star system...

"Sir, it looks like we have found a resourceful star system." was what was relayed by a skinny, tall alien minion to its superior, an even taller , brawny alien. "Great , show me the resources available on each planet." The big brawny alien says while sitting down on a futuristic sci-fi chair. As soon as commanded , a holographic screen pops out from infront of the brawny alien.

"Good.. Good, This will make us alot of profit, but why is their so much more biomass?" asked the brawny alien towards the skinny alien in amazement at what it is seeing. "Hmm , It apears that there are somewhat sentient beings inhabiting this planet, our scans estimate there are about 3 billion of them."

"Eh, oh well, Guess this could be a good time to test how well our new Planet Eater will fare against intelligent species. And who would waste this upportunity to gain a butload of biomass."

"Very well, you can commence deployment of the Planet Eater Mk X" Commands the brawny alien. The skinny alien bows, heads off into a corrider from the cockpit.

"Commander Gloves!" adresses another tall, buff , alien to the know named, commander Glove. "Yes?" replied Glove in an annoyed tone , "Well, you see, the planet eater that you have requested is still undergoing maintanence with its programming software.."-- The minion was cutt off by commander glove, "Ugh.., just send it out as it is ! That stupid captain won't care anyway , and if I go back with this news he'll pin it on me. And you know what happens to the maintanence crew if that happens...Right?" Commander glove said the last part with a warning tone.

"Y-Yes sir , the Planet Eater will be ready to launch in 4 hours Sir!"

In the Planet Eater Launch Chamber.

Foot steps could be heard, along with the clanking of metal ,and welders. "Ok everyone Stop what you're doing, its time to launch the planet eater." Gradually the noises in the chamber calmed down , until there was only talking. "Everyone behind the blast shield! Launch in T-minus 10"

"Umm thats not good, You know how much trouble were in because of that silly mistake of yours!"

"Fine, you slacker... I wont tell em."

0 "LAUNCH!" As the minion who was counting announced that he pressed a big red button.

The Asteroid disguised planet eater, disembarks from its supporting rope-like constraints ,and through the already open Bay doors, and with a thunderous blast from its engines, heads off into the distance, towards a verdurous planet.

REFERENCE PICTURE OF THE PLANET EATER : https://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/interstellar_asteroid.jpg

It is shaped as such because it is meant to act like a meteor to unsuspecting sentient life.(Also because im bad at explaining how things look like, but I will get better.) The size of the planet eater is 1 kilometre wide , and 3 kilometre long.

---May be working on a detailed world map, if any of you authors out there need an easy way to build a detailed fantasy world , or any kind of world really. I suggest using, azgaar fantasy map generator.

Might continue this if it gets good feedback.
