space battle
Starships exchanging fire
A space battle is a military engagement fought in outer space, typically between spacecraft equipped with advanced weaponry.
The concept exists almost entirely in science fiction, appearing in films, television, video games, and novels where fleets of starships exchange laser fire or missiles against the backdrop of stars.
The movie's climactic space battle lasted twenty minutes.
Space battles often serve as dramatic set pieces that showcase futuristic technology and tactical maneuvering in zero gravity.
