    I don't think he can without going berserk or some other kind of altered stat that boost his power.

    According to the Marvel Wiki (which cites it as Thor #388), Thor once cracked the armor of a Celestial with one blow, and the resulting shockwave nearly destroyed the planet Pangoria - had Thor not stopped it. The page goes on to say that Thor has also destroyed stars, planets, and moons with his fists, citing these feats as being from Omega Flight #4.

    I've never read any of those issues so I can't verify them, so take from that what you will.

    Yeah, they're canon. But I guess you can't really determine that that's what happened unless you actually read the issues yourself (or if someone posts scans).

    Well first of, what kind of planet or star? Some are considerably bigger than others, some are considerably denser than others and so on. Its like asking if Bruce Lee can lift up an animal. I mean animal? Some animals are the size of a mouse, some the size of a cat, some the size of a pig, some the size of a horse, some of the size of a blue whale. Except even then, the scale differences between some stars and planets make the size difference between a mouse and whale look non existent.

    Secondly, whatever your answer above doesn't really matter. Thor is fictional, and not just a normal fictional character, but a fictional character designed to be very powerful in ways that purposely leave him vague and ambiguous in power. His power is designed to fluctuate to fit the story. His strength, durability, and speed are all inconsistent and basically best defined as deus ex machina. So can Thor destroy a planet? Well anything that can build up enough speed to impact an object and overcome its threshold for stability will destroy it, so the answer will always be yes or no or depends - since Thor's travel speed and throwing speed, his durability and willingness to throw himself or his hammer are relative and so are the sizes and make ups of planets and stars are as well.

    I sort of feel like you did not read all of my post perhaps, since I already answered that part in my second paragraph, but to reiterate, yes, no, and depends. Throwing anything that has mass near the speed of light is traditionally a good way to destroy anything. Then again throwing anything that has mass near the speed of light has been traditionally a rare occurrence, an as far as humanoids being the things doing the throwing and what they throwing being visible to the human eye non existent. Then again Thor is fictional and like many fictional characters they can do whatever they want as per creative direction. Thor has spoke in space before. Thats even stranger than being able to destroy a planet relatively speaking.

    The Celestial armour cracking scene involved Thor wearing his belt of strength and gauntlets etc IIRC. I dont think it almost destroyed the planet but it did shake mountains etc. I doubt the valdity of the second reference if only because if Thor had destroyed a star, planet or moon with his bare hands we would have seen it posted time and time again.

    Thor has destroyed a planet, so has bill,, heralds have destroyed stars and Thor and Bill are At least average to high herald level and have beaten nearly all of them. Drax the destroyer has also destroyed a planet and a star gladiator has destroyed a planet and has claims of destroying a star and a black hole with his hands and Thor's at least as strong as either of them.

    Thor doesn't even appear in Omega Flight #4, so I'm at a loss as to how he cleaved such a path of cosmic destruction in that issue.

    Hell, that mini was part of the fallout from Civil War, so Thor was probably still dead at the time.

    Thor & Beta Ray Bill are more powerful than every herald. Except Silver Surfer.

    Yes, Thor is a planet-busting powerhouse if motivated/angry enough. Being a hero, you probably wouldn't see him do it intentionally, unless it was some desolate hunk of rock in some far away universe. If the Surfer can, Thor can.

    It was stated in another scan that mjolnir could draw the power of 1000 suns,perhaps it may be a hyperbole anyway to forge mjolnir a star had to be destroyed.
