The solaranite bomb from Plan 9. But a pistol can be handy too.

Colonel Tom Edwards: ...Why, a particle of sunlight can’t even be seen or measured.
Eros: Can you see or measure an atom? Yet you can *explode* one. A ray of sunlight is made up of *many* atoms!
Jeff Trent: So what if we *do* develop this Solaranite bomb? We’d be even a stronger nation than now.
Eros: [with disgust] Stronger. You see? You see? Your stupid minds! Stupid! Stupid!
Jeff Trent: That’s all I’m taking from you!

I’ll agree with the Berzerkers. Nothing like a highly intelligent weapon.

Awesome series of books there. Even though its non-canon, The Body Electric (the machine race that created Vger) has destroyed thousands of galaxies and was about to destroy this one until Data convinced them otherwise.

Another Star Trek reference. Kevin Uxbridge’s brain from The Next Generation episode “Survivors” was very powerful. He killed 50 billion Husnocks with a single thought.

I agree. They could potentially wipe out all existence. Dr. Who wins the category.

The "Genesis Device" was really cool and whomever thought of it, had a great imagination.

I didn't read the entire thread to see if anyone has posted this, BUT the most Powerful Weapon isn't science fiction at all. The most powerful weapon would be a mini-blackhole somehow set on a course to intercept a planet or star of a solar system you wish to destroy.

I think we’re talking just about our universe. Oops! Does that make me a uni-phobe?

Ah, geez! How can you trust a weapon where they failed to cover the exhaust port with a piece of plywood?
