Simple one. Identify this heavenly body and give me the pop-cul reference.
Answer - To quote Srivats, Mimas the moon of saturn which looks eerily like the Death Star from Star wars. Excuse my previous reference to XKCD. After more research, I realised that it was wrong.
7 were able to crack it. Srivats, Dinesh Krithivasan, jj, suvi and anubhavb. Rithwik pinged me with the right answer.

Mimas, a moon of Saturn (also the smallest in the solar system to achieve hydrostatic equilibrium) that resembles the death star from the Star wars universe. I found an XKCD strip called "Excessive quotation" which is about the death star. Is that the vague connect?
