Ori satellite

"the earth vessel has been targeted, weapons primed and ready"

- Satellite controller

The Ori satellite weapon was an orbital weapons platform.

Overview
The device fires a beam similar to the one seen on an Ori battlecruiser, but requires time to charge the weapon. This is likely due to Rand's rather primitive technology. The beam of the Ori Satellite Weapon is capable of bypassing Asgard defenses at full power. It also carries defensive shields, which can resist Tau'ri missiles.

History
While trying to convert the Rand Protectorate, a Prior gave the instructions of the satellite to Rand, but in stages. The Rand themselves built the weapon from the instructions, under the watch of the prior. An attempt by the Prometheus to destroy the satellite failed, resulting in it's destruction. However, after President Nadal was killed by Commander Pernaux, the satellite was shut down. The satellite was destroyed after the Rand and Caledonians destroyed each other.
