[Star Wars] Why didn't the Rebels just load a ship with explosives, and then use a hyperdrive to send it flying directly into the Death Star at FTL speed?

As a self-propelled unit, the Death Star doesn't have a fixed astrological pattern to accurately predict a destination for the hyperspace jump. Additionally, because the Death Star is normally in proximity to a moon or planet, there is a great likelihood that the mass of the nearby planetary object would activate the emergency shutoff on the hyperdrive, pulling the ship out of hyperspace prematurely.
