While the Rebel Alliance celebrates the recent victory of the destruction of the Death Star, top strategists fear the revolt against the Galactic Empire has only just begun. In order to continue the anticipated future battles, the Alliance requires a great deal of energy. On this remote planet, high energy containing droids are scattered from a pre Imperial era which possess great promise to aid in the conflict. While this prospect presents great potential, the amount of energy reserves in this location are extremely scarce. A scholarly group of engineers, Table I, took upon the initiative to design a lightweight and energy efficient advanced energy vehicle to transport the droids and aid the Alliance. Specifically, the team prioritized mass reduction and maximizing simplicity. The planning and construction of the AEV took place over the course of three months; which includes but is not limited to brainstorming, prototypes, construction, and optimization.
