Death Egg



The Death Egg is a recurring object in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a massive orbital fortress and space station, constructed by Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik. It is the first and most famous of Eggman's space stations. Hosting some of the doctor's most deadly creations of all time, this vast stronghold serves as the scientist's ultimate weapon and key component in his various quests for world dominance.

The Death Egg's first incarnation surfaced during the "Death Egg saga" when Dr. Eggman tried to harness the Chaos Emeralds in an attempt to finish his plans for the infamous space station. Despite Eggman's plans however, the Death Egg was brought down by the efforts of Sonic and Tails. However, the Death Egg proved to be of robust stuff, surviving both a fall from space and a failed launch before eventually making it back into orbit. Although the original battle station was destroyed at the end of the Angel Island incident, Dr. Eggman has continued to rebuild it, time and time again.
