So I would like to test a theory. I believe that NPC Stations can in fact be blown to smithereens. Unfortunately the amount of alpha required would be retardedly high. I know for a fact they can be damaged:

01:43:54 Combat Your group of Neutron Blaster Cannon II lightly hits Intaki Syndicate Bureau, doing 2814.6 damage.

So what if, say, 100 titans all doomsday'd the station simultaneously? Would it be possible to blow up a NPC Station in 0.0? If so, this could bring about all sorts of new mechanics.

"Pansey fleet hiding in station all day? BLOW IT OUT OF THE SK... SPACE!"

There would be no more 'station games' as stations could be blown up. Granted, to prevent any willy nilly from doing this, the recharge rated would have to be retardedly high as well. However, a well placed strike from over 100 doomsdays SHOULD be able to destroy it.

Thoughts?

Your level of presumption is amusing. Also discussion of possible exploits is prohibited.

I believe they just sit at zero HP, indestructible.

A 30 second Google search and two minutes of reading would have completely eliminated the urge to create this thread.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

So high it's mentally handicapped? I don't get it. And I don't think you do either.

Post with your monkey.

For a while on SiSi recently the invulnerability flag on many things was accidentally turned-off.

Asteroids could be destroyed. Even stations and stargates. The latter probably caught a dev's attention.

It happened during a mass test, or at least that's when everyone figured it out. Suddenly there was one less stargate on our overviews, so I warped to another one and shot at it (and did indeed kill it).

Tried it with the station though, didn't work. I also tried it with the combat site beacons but those have such a ridiculously low signature radius that by the time I locked it another player already blew up my ship.

OP, sorry to disappoint you, but despite the advertisement EVE is not real. It's a computer game. Ugh
In a computer game, you will find artificial barriers, like invulnerabilities of crucial entities (for example NPC stations and stargates).
